Little known fact regarding high speed internet: the province of Saskatchewan was the first area in North America to offer SDSL and ADSL to the public. Here in portage we have multiple choices: Cable by Shaw Cable, ADSL Sympatico High Speed by Manitoba Telephone, and wireless, which is just starting to show up in Manitoba. No, not satellite, which is laggy as all get out, but true wireless internet.. I think the protocol its based on is called BlueTooth? Anyway, I usually ping the MA at about 75 or so. Without using download accelarators, I can hit 400K down. With a download accelarator, I have hit 1.2 Meg down, but that was just once.
