DVLA can be so slow at sorting paperwork out, I had no end of problems when trying to transfer a private plate and buy a new car at the same time.

Saw the new Harry Potter last weekend and don't think it was as good as Goblet of Fire.

3412 means 3.412 MB per something, ISP's normally quote speeds in the same unit. So a 8 meg (MB) connection should pull about 6-7MB in reality. Hope that helps
