yeah, at the end of the day it is a 33% increase for you so you are bound to notice it. I can remember in the old days when I got bumped from 3mbits to 10mbits and I thought that was stupidly fast. I know it sounds silly but as far as I am concerned the faster the better. Rather than leaving a download ticking along all day at 60k/sec (for example) I would rather have a fast enough connection that I can download it in 30 seconds so I know it is done and then leave my connection idle for the rest of the day. I haven't actually tried downloading anything yet but I am looking forward to tomorrow morning. I maxed out my torrents at 14.6MB/sec this morning.
