Well this might pee on Neil's bonfire a bit as far as exceeding BT on upstream goes:

Upstream update
For now, Motorola still has no specific plans to shoot for Silver or Full Docsis 3.0 qualification, which brings upstream channel bonding into the mix. That's partly because the vendor doesn't believe most MSOs will be ready for that for another 12 to 14 months. The only public exception so far is Japan CableNet Ltd, which is trying out upstream channel bonding using Arris Group Inc. (Nasdaq: ARRS)'s C4 CMTS. (See Japan Cablenet Swims Upstream .)
"We do not feel that is a business-impacting hurdle," Wagoner says of Motorola's present emphasis on downstream channel bonding. "But the upstream is becoming increasingly important. We'll be ready as the market needs that upstream capacity."

Perish the thought, without being able to bond crappy upstreams together to give the appearance of tons of capacity VM may actually have to clean the networks up properly nationwide and segment down the enormous DOCSIS 3 bonded groups.
Anyone who wants some work now might be a good time to learn cable, they could need quite a few contractors to help with this
