8mb ADSL Coming
Hello
I'm sure most of you know, but 8mb "Max-dsl" products are going to be released in the coming weeks. This will allow up to 8mb down and 488kb up.

Most ISP's are introducing capped connections though, even my one (http://www.zenadsl.co.uk)

Unfortunately, aDSL speeds are dependant on how far you are from your exchange.
Poor me is a mile (a-to-b) from mine so have to make do with a max 1Mb connection

To be honest, who actually is going to get the 'full' 8mb? Unless you live next door to the exchange it's not going to happen!
I live 6k's from mine, and the max is 512k for me. Thankfully I should have a 3mb wireless connection to cheer me up soon
