I'm on a really good 1mbit adsl connection so I'm quite fortunate but most people I know are on 512k and don't even get this amount during peak times, a friend of mine has 1.5mbit ntl and I wouldn't touch that service, it's only just more than half the speed of mine for the most part and it's upload rate is aweful.
I can't wait for them to start pulling their fingers out over the speed in this country, 120kb/s may have impressed me at first but after a while it's still a pain waiting over an hour for cd images
