We will see...

Only time will tell if all markets. Will get the powerboost or not. I can see it now, give us powerboost and then give us caps. So we can hit our caps faster.

Speed and volume are 2 different concepts that some have difficulty grasping.

Give me all the speed they can give. It makes internet use much more enjoyable. Having a FAST connection doesn't mean that I have to download 10x as much as I used to do.

The whole issue can be solved easily:
Make the connections as fast as technically and financially possible.
Base monthly charges on how much is transferred(VOLUME). And those who use the most pay the most.

No one said that if you get a faster pipe that you have to dl more than you used to. Not sure where you are getting that idea from.

And yes, a faster pipe will make people download more. It enables them to do more at once. Speed and volume tie in together here.

edit: let me ask u this. DO you download more since you've moved on from dialup?

How about from the 1st post in this thread »We will see...

and a 1000 other posts every time a speed increase is announced. The 1st post after that is always a complaint that faster speeds just means we will hit our caps faster.

Kudos!!! Someone with brains who understands the CAP issues.

Neither of you understand the true issue. No need for CAP in first place. Quit trying to sell us on this bill-per-byte crap. The faster speed you have, the more data you will consume. The more devices you will hook-up to use. It's really basic and the ISP know this.

It's fairly common sense that the faster your internet the more you can eat in a shorter amount of time. Caps are most definitely not a progressive change, rather one to send america's internet back to the dark ages.

I'm serious you 2 should invest in their stock since your so keen in seeing the company succeed in profit making.
