Question for the USA?

[The master]

I heard that you guys can get 4mb internet speed is this true? I thought that the highest commericial speed that companys sold was 2mb and only organisations like the military and army had really fast speeds like 8 mb.

Is it true you can get 4mb/ 4000 kbs?

I think if this is true it is because of the population and the demand of paying customers for it. We can only get 2mb in the UK and not too many people even have that speed.

Feedback would be good, slingbalde knows I'm sure he is a semi geek.

That works out similar to me.

Now sling has got to know this.

check out the response at vbulletin, apparently just normal packages offer like 6 MB, and in sweden a average of 8 MB.

FWIW - I don't download much except updates. This works well for me...

yeah, i only have dialup, which sucks, but we're about to switch, what we're getting isn't nearly as fast as what you're talkin about, but what you're talking about is offered around here for around 45 a month i think we're getting a joint thing with phone, cable, internet for about 60 a month or something.
