Cable is very expensive in Australia because the size of our population is nothing compared to the US, but something that does look very good is a Cable plan with the countries biggest ISP, Uncapped downstream, 128k up.. I like the downstream bit =P~

Twice the price, and 200 times as good \:D/

My, my,
Sun is pie.
There's fodder for the cannons,
And the guilty ones can all sleep safely,
All sleep safely.

Cable rocks. Comcast 3000 down 256 up.
Broadband is what I call Intercrack. Once you get on it, they have you hooked.

Don't count your toads until they're running around with their heads cut off.

i hope that 1day the U.K will come up with somet as fast as that JC and freez, my isp offers no faster than what i have 1024/256. buleyonda offer a 2MB/256 i think might be a higher UL

of course these are only home packages i could spend ALOT more and get like 4,5,6,7,8,MB+ DL and who knows what UL but i would pay stupid amounts for this :cry:
