Why do you say landline and wireless speeds are not comparable? I have heard of people getting a MCOM modem instead of a 2nd landline because it's faster, plus if they have a notebook they can take it with them.

I was responding to someone who was implying ISDN or faster landline connections. I was trying to point out that a landline connection is completely different than a wireless one; regardless of the speed.
