Obviously the pertinent questions are...

"How much will it cost?" and "What download cap limitations will Comcast place on it?" Secondary question is, "If you're offering 250 Mbps for X dollars, why isn't 10 Mbps costing me X/25 dollars?"

Yeah, I know, it's a cable company. Rates never go down, they only go up. Silly me...

@verizon.net

Plus price is determined on the demand side (i.e. what people are willing to pay) not on cost of production. It's just a fact of life. Like gravity.

Usage doesn't increase linearly with speed for one thing. For another thing, costs don't increase linearly with speed. So it doesn't cost Comcast much more to serve 22 Mbps than 12 Mbps, or 250 Mbps than 100 or 50 or 12 Mbps on the scale of things.
