| BB league cliff-hanger The ‘who’s-going-to-get-broadband-next’ league is becoming more soap operatic by the week, it would appear. For no restating of the standings is now complete without a few local exchanges being just one registration short of their trigger. And this week’s no exception. | |
| Dates for six The countdown to broadband going live has begun for six more Highlands and Islands local exchanges with the latest release of Ready for Service Dates. But for one the wait is practically a year. | |
| The broadband league At least three more local exchanges are teetering on broadband activation, being less than a handful of registrations away from their trigger points. | |

| Mo’ triggered The body count of broadband-activated local exchanges is growing to Tarantino-esque proportions with yet more Highlands and Islands communities pulling their triggers. | |

| |
| Completely triggered Hurrah! The Kilmun local exchange has finally succumbed and found that last remaining registration to activate its broadband upgrading.
| |
| Latest triggered exchanges The halfway point in activating all 128 local exchanges given broadband trigger points has now been reached.
| |
| Top stays the same The catchily entitled 50 per cent or more of broadband trigger league has a distinctly familiar look about it this week, especially at the top end. | |
| Trigger-ometry And another one down and another one down. Another one bites the dust… | |
| Not enough Okay, Kilmun in Argyll. The joke is over. | |
