Re: Throttled to 7.5Mbps? said by jc100:One can imagine why they don't want the media present, though. There's no real fanfare needed for such a limited system. Yay? You must have read that wrong. They are asking for media coverage, not discouraging it.

| Yep. I did read wrong. Personally, this system isn't worthy of fan fare. What a crock as I'm sure it'll be advertised at 50mbit, and the "capped speed" hidden into a million words of fine print. The rest of my post is accurate. However, I did misread on the media part. Not major mistake but retracted to say the least on my part. |
