Prague (pte035/24.02.2003/14:53) Czech Internet users now have the option of going online via ADSL. The first company to offer ADSL connections in the eastern European country with a population of ten million is SkyNet.
SkyNet http://www.skynet.cz has published a complete price list, with connections available in Prague, Brunn and Ostrau. According to former monopolist Czesky Telecom, about 80,000 Czech citizens have expressed an interest in acquiring an ADSL connection.
Since Czesky Telecom published its ADSL wholesale offer on 6 February http://telecom.wholesale.cz/sluzby/pristup_k_siti_internet/adsl/index.php, half a dozen contracts have been signed, including the agreement with SkyNet. SkyNet provides ADSL connections in five speed and price categories.
