Re: 5GB is TOO LOW

You are right that I was a little off on the D3 upgrade costs:

"The deployment should cost Cablevision between $70 and $120 per customer"

From: »Cablevision Begins Beta Testing 100Mbps?

As far as the utilization; you are forgetting that US cable companies are claiming the less than 5% are using more than 2GB per month (figures are ball park off the top of my head).

Edit: "Currently, the median monthly data usage by our residential customers is approximately 2 - 3 GB."

From: »www.comcast.net/terms/network/amendment/

EditII: If you take a look at the Japanese data you will also see that they allow well over a TB of download on a significant number of systems. Your PDF page 11.

I've heard from more than two sources now that both India and Japan have 1 TBPS internet speeds available. Needless to say, the price in India is amazingly low, but it would be interesting to know how much it costs in Japan.

In the meantime, I'm paying ATT for 5 mbps, and actually getting only 2.6 for downloads and less than .5 for uploads.

What a deal. On TOP of that, ATT didn't like me running Windows Server 2008 and made me shut it down under the threat of cancelling my service completely. The land of the free, home of the brave.
