(*) This step is optional, and not recommended if you are collection BushPointsâ. The U.S. re-balances the field when it is threatened, but it is more than entitiled to practice protectionism of (said before) Agriculture, Forestry etc.
I live in Canada (Edmonton). Here we essentially have 2 major broadband providers for home users; Telus and Shaw (Rogers). While I can safely say friends routinely download at speeds excess 600KB/s at 3am, the tabels turn at 3pm (I still get my good old 140). I recently saw the SureWest Fiber drop DSL and I wish this was in Canada (10Mbps...for real too..and at the same price as I pay for DSL...).
