Does this work for anyone else?

Dear Time Warner,

While the PowerBoost is pretty nifty, 384K upload speeds are "a little dated for 2009".

Would you kindly consider increasing your uploads to a more competitive 768K or higher?

Regards.

In my area (TX, not CO) TWC has 15/2 available for $50, or 7/512 for $40

Competition, man. Competition.

Only in a few areas I think. Most places are 512 standard and turbo greatly depends on the area. I live in Ohio and 768 is the max for turbo...kind of sad.

Yup. In my area it is. They've got powerboost working nicely but upload is still a paltry 384K.

There's plenty of competition in my area, they just won't upgrade their networks. I have ATT DSL/Uverse, WOW (both of which offer 2 megs of upload speed) and TW still won't do anything.

That's rather interesting. Guess WOW's high internet-only pricing lets TWC keep internet customers despite low upload speeds.
