and note this :- I took an informal survey of one of my classes of adult college students and professionals--80 percent of them had a broadband connection. And even though they're fluent in English, it took a couple minutes to clarify the term "broadband" because that's the only type of Internet connection available. When asked if they had ever used a dial-up connection, In Me So, a computer science major at WonKwang University said, "I remember using a 56K modem once, about eight years ago."

Now what was that about Unbundling .....
