"Digital Divide" statistics

Thanks to Michel Menou for the following: "The Eurostat publication Statistics in focus, 38/2005 is devoted to recent data regarding the so-called "digital" divide (aka internet
penetration) in the countries of the European Union http://epp.eurostat.cec.eu.int/cache/ ITY_OFFPUB/KS-NP-05-038/EN/KS-NP-05-038-EN.PDF "
This highlights differences between countries and also common features e.g. there is more likely to be internet access in households with children.
