Telenor has announced that it has agreed to buy GlobalConnect's (GC) Consumer Business in Norway. Not that many mature fibre assts have been sold in Europe, and so this deal is interesting on quite a few levels: for those thinking about what FastFiber in Portugal is worth or what Virgin Media might sell a stake in NetCo for, or what price Zegona/MasOrange might achieve in Spain, then this deal has relevance
