granted that is stupidly fast but u can never garentee that these companys will give a good service. look at blueyonder they gave like 3 meg which was brilliant not long ago and then the service went down for 5 months

I'll believe it when I see it. I beleive the companies in my area now have the ability to give me a much faster connection but why would they? I wouldn't notice it and it would cost them and me more. Now, if your on dial up and they suddenly made this availabe than of course this would be a huge deal.
