    Cool link. I can't wait 'til vDSL comes along. With 50Mbps down/25Mbps up, everyone will be able to have the equivalent of roughly 12 T1s down... I can't wait.

    Sounds like this would take a while to actually hit the mainstream, and what we have now I wouldn't consider mainstream. It sure would take some type of fancy wiring to get this into the suburbs and such.

    Well I know I'm seriously glad that the broadband is taking over. I do a lot of highend flash work and i get tired of having to do two sites for each. (1 for low bandwidth, and one for high bandwitdh). Once everyone goes highspeed I can really start using 3dstudio max's full capabilities. But alas, it is still too far off to forget about our 56k friends.
