    Taco says 2.4Mbs

    ZDNet says 4.2 MB per second

    press release says 2.4 mbps

    Now the press release is not that interesting because 2.4 milli bits per second is only one bit every 417 seconds

    CmdrTaco's rendition is plausible and interesting

    ZDNet is smoking crack if they think they can beat DSL with their cell phone.
