And those 'very large' PDF files are going to eat into your cap. So, either you use your new 3mb connection to view normal websites, get email, etc, and don't notice much difference in speed, OR you use the speed for bigger files, notice the difference, but use up your cap much faster.

The thing i'm most looking forward to, is finding out if newsgroups, email, and outages improve any after the caps, i personally don't think they will, as ntl are still made up of the blind leading the blind, and mis-management is mis-management, however low you make the caps.
