If I don't expect it, why will the manufacturers make it?

They seem to be happy to court the guy offering 1 megabit out of a $8k radio 
when anything made in the past 8 years could do the same thing.

Do I expect to take Joe mainstream away from Comcast?  No.  Do I want to be 
seen as the dialup to their superhighway?  Definitely not.

I plan to switch to usage based billing, but I also want a system that will 
supply the demand.
