Maybe when they launch 4M it will go like this.....

1M gets upgraded to 2M

512K upgraded to 1M

384K upgraded to 512K

There would be a price reduction and the new 4M line would cost as much as the current 1M.

You wish :D

synch speed has dropped yes, but speed through put should still be good

thing about synch speed, In my experience the higher your synch speed the better your latency. Back in the days when I use to synch at 2mb I could download at full speed and game with a latency of +-50
