I forgot, cable gets slower the more folks on it. I tested now, and the speeds are a bit faster. The d/l is great. The u/l still a bit sluggish. Thankfully I d/l more than u/l. Thanks for the link dcp.

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
UL on cable is usually quite a bit slower. I've got 10 Mbit down and it's only something like 768k up.
I'm at 8 Mbit and 400k.
LeNubian - laughing is how I make it through. That and the occasional WTFseriously???
OA, what speeds are they promising to deliver?
I couldn't find any upload speed promised. That's why I was curious if there was a norm, and if I was in it.
Went to the Apple Store today to get a bag for new work computer. There is a line around the building. I'm like, "what the heck? Did they announce something I hadn't heard of?" Nope, still have a line for the new iPhone! I dunno if Dallas is just behind in the distribution? Or is it the same in other areas?
omni,
go to ebags.com - they have MARVELOUS bags.
I showed up a 6:45 a.m. on Sunday at the Fifth Avenue store and they had already closed the line. As many people in line as there were phones.
I'm strongly considering saying screw it and just getting a Centro or Blackberry Curve. It's cheaper, especially in the long run for me on T-mobile, and provides adequate data speed for my needs. I can then get an iPod Touch if I really need the apps at a later time.
thanks le nubian. I could get in fine. And I purchased a bag. It was just kinda strange to see a line still. It seemed to be run very well. Line outside not blocking the door. Another inside in the A/C. And a person at the door letting in folks a few at a time to keep the line moving.
