Re: dammit

ha, they are throttling your service now and you are not aware of it. how is this different, except for the supposed download speed of 3mg? They can throttle you at 3mg as easily as 1mg. I see the commercials, and at no time do I get real time imaging, like that basketball playback on their tv commercials. Throttling means the computer automatically changes your speed when it or the loop exceeds a certain amount of data. Cable is cheaper, but in some ways just as crappy as DSL.

Re: dammit

umm, the debate hasnt been about throttling (1.5mbps, 2mbps, etc..) which has been in place since before @home. it's about usage caps (40GB/mo, etc..)
