Carl,
Yes. I downloaded it to my dedicated server at M5Hosting. That's
where we will use it. I expected it to take a while due to slow
mirrors, so I figured I'd just start the download and have it ready
when I got over to the data center. We have a few people waiting to
start off with the 8.04 Release on their new dedicated servers.
Big pipes... yes. :o) but the 13ms latency to mirrors.kernel.org
is what enables the single stream downloads at super fast speeds. The
Ubuntu d/l was not any faster or slower than mirrors.kernel.org is for
us normally, but a little more erratic speed-wise (bounced around from
3MB/sec to 11MB/sec).

At something like 8 MB/sec you must have an exceptionally fast network
connection.
Right now I am getting about 800kB/sec from mirrors.kernel.org over
RoadRunner, which is an order of magnitude slower.
