Bad definition of Broadband

Let's face it real Broadband should be defined as at least 2 Mbs download and 1 Mbs upload with acceptable latency. Near broadband may be vastly better than dialup speeds but it shouldn't be the goal. By the way it will only take $333/person ($100 Billion) to fix this mess the NTIA is calling a success.

Your def is too soft. Broadband needs a serious redefine, and a time table for progress forward.

This year the def should be:
10/5
Next year
15/10
Following year
20/20
In Four
30/30
By 2015 it should reach
1000/1000

You're right it is too soft as far the future goes. However if over 95% of U.S households could have obtained that at a low cost at the end of 2007 the NTIA could have rightfully claimed success. Instead we got a clearly false propaganda statement based on 200/0 Kbs and bad statistics.
