Re: Sick of these?
said by gatorkram  :
Is anyone else sick of hearing about these "speed" records? What good is it doing anyone? I don't see my speeds getting faster, and cheaper from this, does anyone else?
Seems to me, there is lots of money out there in the world, and no ons is using it to make the internet better and faster for everyone else. Maybe I am missing something?
i agree totally with gatorkram, let us know when it applies to us at home!

I definitely co-sign, we are never gonna get these technologies, let alone get them at a cheap price. Overseas got connections similar or even better then us for crazy deals. These damn companies keep filling our head with cotton filling. Just do it & give us fullfillment in speeds, not yap yap.

never say never... there was a time when no one would ever have dreamed of our current level of information technology. We will see very high speed connections in the home... eventually. |

They can't offer it in places where they are not the local telco.
