Just wondering what connection speed everyone's using around here. I'm using 56k right now (as i have been for the last 7 years) and it's shit. But soon I'm getting 3.5mb/s but it aint coming soon enough! kinda sux coz here in NZ real broadband has only recently been offered for residential users and before then 256k was considered broadband!
