I am 1 mile from the exchange and no it isn't available in my area yet but I am more than happy to wait if it means I can get some guaranteed kick ass speed.

hmmmm, I would have bet good money that they wouldnt have done it. Have you checked your config to make sure you have been provisioned for it? I suppose they might be more willing to do it now if most of the upstream upgrades have been completed and the channel bonding is sorted.

sweet. Even though you obviously should have had it, I am amazed (I am being serious) that they had the knowledge, ability and inclination to get you changed to the right config. I was expecting them to give you every excuse under the sun why you should be on 100/5

Will I be able to stream a YouTube video without it buffering with that? :D

dont even get me started on that. I have managed to resist the urge to jump on the band wagon so far. As soon as the thread started I was going to jump to their defense and say I never have any buffering issues but everything I have watched recently is buffering. A friend sent me a link on facebook for a stupid 240p video which was 1:49 long and it paused and buffered after 12 seconds.
