Does the unlimited download actually start on the 1st or do we have to wait until someone at NTL says 'ready, steady, GO'.
To be honest I'm not sure my download habits will change that much, it'll be nice not looking over my shoulder so to speak for that first letter!!

happy new year everyone

Re: So 2mb users, how much are you gonna download tomorrow

I'm just going to continue to use my connection normally. i.e. I do what I want to do with it, always have, always will.

Chances are tommorrow I'll do very little with it - I'll probably be sleeping off a hangover

Heh you might well find you get slapped if you do

Just because there's no formal limit they still reserve the right to tell you to behave if you go OTT

No ISP offers 'totally unlimited' they can all kick you off if they don't like how much you are using
