"Telecoms giant BT has bought online electronic products retailer
Dabs.com for an estimated £30m."


Oddly enough, despite buying from Ebay, Microdirect, Aria etc in the past,
I've never bought anything from Dabs. Now, I certainly never will in the
future.

Presumably, this is BT's last desperate attempt at diversifying before they
lose control of the local loop. Then, they'll go bust as they have richly
deserved for years.
