Comcast now offering 16Mbs
Comcast in bay area is now offering 16Mbs download and 2Mbs upload. It's the same price as their previous 8Mbs tier.

Guess we'll find out.
I've been on their premium package for years now (currently @ 8mbps). My downloads average well over 1MB/sec, all the time. Never had a problem with throttling and comcast. The 768kbps upload has always sucked porcupine balls though. So I'll be happy to see the 2mbps upload.

Damn I'm jealous. Out in the boonies my choices are dialup, satellite (had it for years... awful), and T1 (what I have now, $550/month for 1.4 both up and down) -- it's a business write-off but still expensive.
