If you're in the Cogeco service area (in Ontario and Quebec), you owe it to yourself to look at their broadband solutions. I've been a cable-modem customer for about 4 years now, in different parts of the city, and have been extremely pleased. Prior to that I was a Rogers cable-modem customer, and my experience then was much less satisfactory.

This comes to mind watching the download task for the newest Visual Studio 2005 Release Candidate progress - 2.5GB in, my average download speed is a constant 650KB/second. Not Kb/second, but real, bonafide KB/s. Amazing.
