yup, and as it is on "opt in" upgrade I would love know to know what the % uptake is because the peeps who are currently on 20mbits or less are more than likely to be the kind of customers who say they arent fussed about speed and only check emails etc so they won't be fussed about the effort of upgrading. I bet at least 50% of that 24% don't bother with and you will still be left with a few hundred thousand customers using docsis2 cpe.

From an admin point of view I don't understand why VM don't force the upgrade on all customers 30mbits or higher to make sure all the tiers and accounts are clean otherwise you will end up wiith all the silly tiers which we had 2 years ago and it will be L30mbit, L50mbits, XL60, XL100 etc etc and it will just be a mess.
