The problem is a chicken-and-egg affair. There aren't any compelling applications that need high bandwidth because few HAVE high bandwidth. How about remote secuirty? Remote backup? Video over IP? There are scads of applications that just aren't possible without high sustained bandwidth.
Heh, I thinkk TDS even beats Paxio on download Mbps per dollar on anything below the package you're on. Which is pretty impressive
I know that with a 20 Mbps connection a lot more of my stuff would be "in the cloud." That's 20 Mbps symmetric...I have 22 down right now. If I could get 50 Mbps symmetric I'd be in heaven. Alas, such a connectionw ould run me $2000 per month here.
