@abuamerican, I lived in the UK for 5 years. My internet connection was 1mb and I was with BT. Between 1 and 8mb is the same price but oddly enough, in essex, the average was 1mb and you were lucky if you got 2mb. (price came to around 45 pounds with line rental as well).

The average UK line speed is 1.5mb sadly whereas in bigger cities you really got amazing speeds.

I think 2mb is juicy here because it's the highest you can get and I was getting almost 3mb.

In south Korea there isn't a place you couldn't find a free wireless connection and the speed was 4mb average. Imagine! FREE 4mb!
