486740 2006-09-23 02:37:00 They are not great !!! :groan: :horrified :annoyed: :eek: :( stu161204 (123)
486741 2006-09-23 02:42:00 Haha. Good to see changes though gum digger (6100)
486742 2006-09-23 03:04:00 Whats Zone 1 and whats Zone 2?

And whats "managed", as in:

Cabriolet - FS/128k - No Cap - $45.60 - Managed - $39.78

If it really is no cap and no charges then that looks pretty good.
What a pity I only get 600kps though....

486743 2006-09-23 03:46:00 They don't look to bad to me.

That unlimited plan has the "potential" to be good, just depends on the real performance reached. It could also be a disaster if it craws along at 5KB/s.

The excess data charges are a COMPLETE rip off at about $14.93 a Gig or did I miscalculate that?

486744 2006-09-23 04:19:00 so is that what are they saying?

if i am currently on the XTRA Explorer plan, i will be automatically upgrade to the cabriolet plan? yea it is good, finally have unlimited plan...

what is zone 1 pricing and zone 2 pricing? so which area are they referring to?

the question remain is WHY DO WE STILL HAVE THE UPLOAD SPEED RESTRCTION??? CAN'T THEY JUST INCREASE IT A BIT, LIKE 256K???

2GB IS NOT ENOUGH FOR ME if i joining the next plan up from Cabriolet plan...

486745 2006-09-23 04:21:00 ok what is zone 1 and what is zone 2? I don't get it.

and if the unlimited plan is full speed, it can't be full speed if the upload speed is only 128kbps right? So what will the full speed be? 4Mbps?

486746 2006-09-23 04:41:00 I would be happy with just 2Mbit if the cap was increased... Would love to know what those zones are they're talking about... Agent_24 (57)

Read the article - explorer will be grandfathered but the dl speed will be increased.

My question is why is the article dated 25th and how did the OP get his hands on it - I cant find anything on the pc world site.

If there is a time machine involved can i get the lotto numbers? :D

I think you will find is that it’s the Magazine version, & it got sent out over the weekend for Monday, which is the 25th ;)
