There's no point

I had 30Mb and later 50Mb service from Verizon and very rarely found any server that could come remotely close to serving those speeds. In a portable device it's even more pointless.

That's true. Really, the biggest benefit I think there is to a high speed connection is for sharing it- we have up to five people on our 20/5 FiOS connection at times. However, with a wireless connection, usually you're the only one on the specific connection.

"Tests show LTE can produce speeds up to 186 Mbps," said GSMA director Dan Warren.
Tests and real are two different worlds. Don't get excited over this marketing gibberish.

I think you mean "any one server". Personally I use multiple servers at the same time. Sometimes it is to accomplish one task but usually there are several independent tasks running at once. I do not use p2p.

I even resorted to download managers to open multiple connections and it didn't help much. Yeah, I could have opened 20-30 connections doing a dozen different things, but that simply doesn't happen that often, certainly not often enough to worry about not having 100Mb service.
