John,

I take it you are uploading through the cable modem and not a phone line? Maybe that's available in my area now. I'll check.
Thanks again for remembering me.
I hear now that the phone companies with fiber optics are back in the game at higher speeds.
I have used the cable modem, and yes it's very fast especially on downloads.
Jim

John, thanks for the comments on cable modems. I think you are right. The internet is only at the beginning. How much does internet cable service cost for unlimited access? I understand cable is considerably faster than ADSL. What are the transfer rates? Are the actual transfer rates as fast as the cable companies say they are? Dale
