20 Megabits! Holy Crap!
That’s a lot of data transfer, folks. Right now, most DSL lines in the DC area top out at 1.5mbps. Cable modem for the most part, from Comcast and others is around 10mbps. Fios is around around 15 Mbps. RCN, though, who we’ve talked about several times before here, seems to be topping out the bandwidth scale with their new 20Mbps service.
How fast is that?

unfortunately not available in VA yet…

They shut off access to the iTunes Store this morning at work, so I can no longer browse the latest and greatest.
Ironically, this also means that people internally can’t subscribe to the company podcast.

Thanks for telling everyone – more users slower speeds!
