Found this and thought id post it up on here. Pretty interesting article. Download rates are suppose to be like the equivalent to downloading 17 complete dvds a second.

Wow, just imagine all the porn... I mean valuable information on cars, you could download with a connection like that.

And of course the first deployment of the technology is probably going to be Japan, according to the article. Those lucky sob's.

I agree that it is a technical exploit to achieve those speeds, but the Internet as we know it is changing...

What is the point of those speeds if you can only access msn.com or google.com?

I heard about that movment for the internet to work like tv. Pay to go to a certain amount of sites. I dont think it will happen but you never know. World is run by people who want money and internet = huge money maker

Too bad the fastest consumer drives (SATA wise) are still around 96MB/s, about .75Gb/s, sustained write speed.
