Go is inviting the public to experience the superfast internet world of the future, including the opportunity to try out the much talked about Oculus Rift virtual reality headset.
Over the next three Saturdays, a stand will be open at The Point shopping complex in Sliema, which will showcase ultra-high definition TV and other internet powered devices which will become common household items with the roll out of superfast internet.
More than 17,000 homes, located mostly in Sliema and areas of St Julian’s and Lija are already able to access Fibre-To-The-Home (FTTH) connections and Go internet subscribers in these areas can now switch their service to fibre – even if they choose to remain on their current internet plans – in order to future proof their homes. The new superfast internet plans will be announced shortly.
