Still too low of caps

Chrono @spcsdns.net	Still too low of caps If they would increase the 5GB cap to 10GB, I think anybody would be able to suffice with that. That 250MB one is horrible though. And before that 50MB? I mean come on; a dial up user could go over that in a month.

trackdrew join:2008-08-28 Columbia, MD Reviews: ·Verizon FiOS	My dial-up can do that in less then 4 hours. 50 * 1024 / 60 / 60 / 4 (KBps) = 3.55 hours Theoretical max of 53.3 kbps = 23985 KB max download per hour of dial-up, so ~ 23.4 MB per hour. (For the record that comes out to almost 17 gigs in a 30 day month, a 10 gig cap would be a joke. this is the 21st century and 5 GB is the best we can do?)

No reason why they can't have at least a 20 GB cap. 20 GB is 8 kbps over 30 days. Now if everyone using 8 kbps is going to overload the system then something is wrong. instead of overage fees Verizon should do like satelite does and just throttle the speeds down to around dial-up. worst case scenario someone would use 36 GB a month. Big deal.
