Press Release: Europe’s digital revolution speeds up, finds new EU survey

Nearly 20% of European households buy bundled telecom packages, according to an EU-wide survey of 27,000 representative households published on 27 April 2007. Almost 30% are now connected to the internet via high-speed 'broadband' links and households increasingly use mobile phones as fixed lines become less popular. 17% of Europeans having a home Internet connection use it for Internet telephony.
