Makes me glad I have a Dell Zino HD on order.
Ya know, the typical "performance" tier in my area is 12Mbps. 70% of that is 8.4Mbps. That's more than twice what a typical movie needs to stream so there's little chance if a typical movie watcher ever getting nailed by this. Certainly I could stream Netflix shows - which run around 3-4Mbps - all day long and not trigger the congestion threshold.

I do not see this as an issue for the very large majority of users.
That's pretty close to what I'm getting: 534/120 also using Xtremelabs Speedtest.

I suspect you and I are one of the few people actually using the right test software with wifi turned off.
Did you remember to turn wifi off before you ran that test in your house?
Time to dump my TiVo Series 3 and go with an HPTC based on Windows 7 and Media Center.
My TiVo may be failing now, and since I only record local broadcasts and CableCARD is no longer important to me, I don't see why TiVo would be in my future. I'm now starting to look at a Windows Media Center solution but would prefer to buy instead of build (although building is not out of the question). Unfortunately, there aren't a lot of nice-looking HTPC systems available for sale to make my life any easier...
Thank you Gigapan!
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I need help! I want a small pocket camcorder but I'm not sure which one to get. I don't want to fall into the hype of the Flip because I worry two hours won't be enough. What should I be looking for when considering a small camcorder and where can I get a good quality one with expandable memory? Thanks!"
