Our Infinity was enabled very quickly, not long after Helly's, if I remember correctly. One of the advatages of living in a rural area*, and the government pushing it's connected villages approach. The next village from us was one of the first places to get Infinity in North Yorkshire, and all the infrastructure had to go past our front (and back) door, so it was simple.
*This, of course is a laugh, we live < 0.5 miles from the ECML, and a ECML station, in a town that has a population of ~16,000 and is within spitting distance of the Teesside conurbation.
