Can I just string some Cat5e from my buddy's house in Hong Kong to mine? Or will that violate the TOS?

You don't have those speeds because you don't want to pay what it would cost to get them HERE.

Next BBR can post the price of oil in Saudi Arabia and how it's awful that we can't get nickel/gallon gas here.

Re: Nice

no...? from the usa its a good 300ms away, thats just due to the raw speed of light limitation.

100mbps is great but all your content will be in chinese. if you try to download something from the usa it will crawl at 6mbps.

Re: I want to live in Hong Kong

don't worry, we'll probably (maybe) have those speeds in 10 or 15 years.

DAMN AT&T

well Verizon will be the first to offer these speeds to residential residents here in the US. DAMN AT&T, "who would need that kind of speed" BS crap.

Well...in Korean it means Uverse is a national disgrace.....

In Chinese it says wait till you see what Uverse can do.....

I happen to agree with the Korean translation!

They think we'd just use it to trade 20 DVDs a day.

Same old Story

With US broadband rates slowing I do not see the expenditures required to bring even a small portion American brodband users to 100Mbs to be prudent use of resources. We need to concentrate in making brodbad efficient via the market place rather than 100Mbs show pieces.

Droool....

And here I am with my 600 kbps cable line ....

Oh dear, I might as well move to Hong Kong, I bet the Chinese food is great over there... Plus a chinese girlfriend would be a nice bonus to the 1 gbps net connexion ... !

Can any of you hong kong broadband overlords try to send me a Wifi signal all the way down to South America ???

Disclaimer: I could get up to 20 mbps AdsL 2 line into my house but I´m too cheap to get it. (besides , dealing with the local telco company sucks !)
