Smile 1.5mbit users, 2mbit or 3mbit upgrade?

Hi guys,

I thought I'd start a poll to get a steer on what most 1.5mbit users would upgrade to, are you going to play it safe and go with 2mbit with a better gb cap level or are you going to go into the fastlane with 3mbit?

Would be good to get a steer definetly.

Cant wait to get home from work and upgrade

Cheers,

This poll's slightly different mate, it would give a good representation on what most 1.5mbit users are going to move to, I'd be quite interested to see the amount of people that are going to move to 2mbit especially with this capping being imposed.

Cheers,

So a step to 2Mb is a downgrade

I voted for 3mb (i've already upgraded). But that's only til there's any mention of a cap. Then i'd go 2mb, until i sort out ADSL.
