I reckon the now 2mb service will be rebranded to S (small), 4mb M (medium), 20mb L (Large) and 50mb XL (Extra Large), once they roll out 50mb. So i very much doubt 2mb users will be upgraded.
My main concern about this upgrade is the modems, as mentioned in the post above, i have the Ambit 120 too, and it struggles with 10mb, i'm pretty sure it won't handle 20mb!

From this forum i've noticed that there's still a lot of customers on this modem, and the other older ones that begin with T (sorry can't remember the name).
If only they'd just post out modems to the customer, rather than faffing about with needing an engineer, it's gonna cost them a fortune in man hours if they have to send out an engineer to every single house on 10mb that needs a new modem, not to mention all the people who will upgrade to 20mb for a month just for the sake of it, who also have old modems.
