    3 are advertising mobile broadband at "3.6 megabytes per second" ! That's approximately 28.8 meg broadband, if it's true! :eek:

    Or is it possible that a broadband provider doesn't know the difference between bytes and bits ?

    Can I sign up and then pull them for false advertising ? ;)

    False advertising, as if anybody cares.

    When I complained about Clear$hits "broadband" adverstising nobody did care..

    its the marketing department that dont know the difference. Everything on computers are always Megabytes as far as they know.

    so, 3.6 Meg or 3.6Mb or 3.6MB or whatever is all Megabytes obviously roflmao
