6Mbps

Yeah, 6Mbps is more than enough for "average" users. For those that just check their email, and visit a few websites, 6Mbps is overkill.

However, it's not enough for some of us users (including myself). Hopefully, this 6Mbps will just be in the beginning, with speed upgrades later.

Your "average user" definition is quite outdated - users nowadays watch videos or download files.

Shocking, huh? It wasn't part of the everyday use last time you have checked, circa 1996, huh?

It's not enough for anybody except some slowed-down folks in the boonies who only checks emails.

Re: I wonder....

Cogeco in Canada seems to have it right. I am a standard subscriber that pays 45cdn a month for 7mbs which they just increased from 5mbs with no price increase.

or you can have the pro package which is 10meg/1meg service. I had it for about 6 months, and decided 70 dollars a month wasn't worth those few sites that downloaded at 1100Kb/sec

Re: 6Mbps


Kamm, why are you such a grump? We know you love us, buddy, but your posts are allways filled with smart assed vitrol. I'd probably fall down gasping if I were to see a post from you that actually showed some thought and was not in attack mode, like you are smarter and know more than everyone here and how dare we express an opinion.

Step back and breathe, buddy. You'll have a thrombosis.

THIS I COULD UNDERSTAND
but why some wanting to downgrade from 6.0 to 3.0 to save 10 bucks a month is insane... needs prozac?
