You are correct spots, 56K, as it is termed today, only applies to download speed. Uploads are still limited to the 28.8/33.6 standard.
However, the difference in speeds on the minute amount of data that he would be sending by placing an order, or a request for some other data, would be so negligible as to be meaningless.
Higher speeds only have relevance in shortening download times, as that is where the bulk of data transfers, in large amounts, take place. Unless someone is a power uploader, it's a non-issue.
EDIT.. as usual I posted before reading all the messages..sorry for the duplication of info.
