Just to compare prices for a moment, in New Zealand ADSL is £30 a month, 
2Mbps down and 512kbps up. This was a year and a half ago now so it may have 
become cheaper still. However they do cap usage to something like 10GB per 
month although this can vary depending on how much you want to pay.
Why does ADSL in Britain only go 256 kbps up and not 512?
