why is late summer not good enough?! If no-one knows the month then no-one can tell you! by late summer i would guess august/september... is that better?

At the end of the day, i think a better option would be to lower the cap on the 300k service. As you said, if the cmr is paying 200% more for 1.5mb then the cap should be 200% less on the 300k service. I don't want to turn this into another cap debate, but someone who can use over 30gb a month is doing something serious with their connection, i see it as plenty, and given that the punishment for breaking it is so menial, there really isn't much to worry about.
