Craig, In case you are wondering just how fast 155million bits per second transfer is. I saw the complete movie Congo, transfer via satellite in under 7 minutes. While it was downloading it was streaming full screen movie quality with full dolby digital. If you are familiar with that movie, it is over three hours in length filled with action and very high color.

I suspect it would take weeks with an open connection to transfer the same file over a 56k modem.
