We all post a lot of photos here and I was wondering what sort of download speeds everyone has? I think it would be interesting to see how the different countries compare. At the moment I have a 1.5Mb/256kb connection but as soon as they finish upgrading and migrating me I will be on ADSL2+ and can look forward to about a 5Mbps/1Mbps connection, by the end of this week I am hoping. 
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm
not sure about the former.

3.4Kbps
If I worked during the day I couldn't spare the time spent waiting, yet could afford a much faster service.

My Comcast cable is rated at 8mb down, 768kb up.
PC Pitstop rates me at 5313kbps down, 1068 kbps up. So it's actually uploading better than they claim!
http://www.bandwidthplace.com/speedtest/ has me at 2.6 Megabits per second, so not so good there.

I've only got DSL 256/64kbps at home... 
Unmetered (unlimited) downloads/uploads though, so I guess it's ok.

I forgot that some ISP's actually limit you total downloads etc.
My cable is unmetered.

My cable is unmetered. Yeah, we're a bit backward over here... most plans still have download limits, with excess charges or shaping once you go over the limit...
