At my current performance on my above-average VDSL it takes 5 times that.
That's assuming Sony are actually going to allow you to download a line rate, I've seen some pretty horrendous speeds from both PSN and XBL, the last system update I had for the xbox got a lovely 2Mbit/s meaning a 250MB update took over an hour to download and apply.

I think they expect people to leave their consoles in the connected standby modes and have the downloads trickle through in the background
