Re: Wow...

155mbps is great......but really when your talking 1200 - 1400ms of latency does it really matter?

I'd rather have better latency then speed..........without good latency you really have nothing.

Actually I'd like to see this as a way to deliver large content where latency is not an issue. If we could work out QOS methods where downloads and such were put on high latency paths then more interactive content could be handled on the low latency paths.

Well it depends on what you're doing- if you're just viewing webpages and downloading files latency isn't a huge issue, but when you get into real-time things it does become one... hm, isn't online gaming very popular in Japan? That would probably injure this product.

Perhaps dialup?
