Re: Year 2008 and I can only get 1.5/256 from DSL...

Yep same story here except I can't even get 8.0/768 from comcast. I'm limited to 6.0/384 plus powerboost (with no claim to performance). Comcast has a city monopoly so they won't even offer the 16/1 that so many other areas offer because there is NO competition. Verizon AT&T and all the other ISP providers, brokers etc just keep charging the market rate for what they loosely call high Speed internet.1.5/256.
Some day I hope to see real HSI but for now I'm relegated to the scrapings from the barrel for HSI at an affordable price.
