My brother has it. I'm fucking jealous. They don't have it available in my area yet :(. MUCH better than cable. So many features. Mobile controls. Awesome interface. Super clear channels. Blazing quick internet. I have the highest internet that Earthlink/Time Warner offer, which is 10 MB/s. My brother has the mid-level package and it's 25 MB/s. HUGE difference. And their highest package is 50 MB/s!!! In conclusion, if it's available to you and you can afford it...GET IT! As soon as it comes to my area, I'm getting it.

its about US43 a month for unlimited usage, but u get a good bundle deal if you add your cable tv to the package...plus you get a ton of freebies when u sign up on a 2 year plan like free laptop, modem and stuff like that.

Singapore's Internet is like

MOTHERFUCKING IMBA

When I moved to the US in 2006, US' was definitely faster. But after I went back in 2009, Goddamn it's like you give turbo to Oba Oba Martins and ask him to run without the ball.

basic broadband here now is over 20mb by far.. Though the nice lines I've been using at the university houses are fibre optic and I could download a full blu-ray movie in around 20 minutes :D

I have FIOS, it's better than Comcast which is what I had before. My only complaint is that FIOS doesn't have FSC in HD, which means watching Inter games in standard def until they add it :mad:

They just installed Fibre Optic to my home, too late I know, but thats what you get for staying in the old part of the city. Should be another week before they start that connection ....cant wait. 10mins to download anything.

That's why I use Earthlink/Time Warner Cable internet and Dish Network for TV :D I went into a Verizon FiOs store the other day and apparently in a few months (according to the rep) they'll start taking orders for installation in my area! *Runs to Fry's to buy another 1.5TB ext hard drive*
