Telus just phoned to promote their ADSL service.

To the casual users, it's a good deal: constant 0.8mb/s connection, dedicated servers, free MP3 player, first month free, switch to turn on/off the internet connection, 5hr/month for laptop to access internet anywhere, $24.99 monthly fee.

But it doesn't meet my biggest need. The bandwidth caps at 5G/month for download and 1G/month for upload with Telus. While the upload barely matches what I use if I BT a lot, the download is way below my usage of 20-25G.

So I declined the offer.

BTW, Blogger is acting funny again whenever I submit. The progress screen would keep refreshing at 0%, and nothing shows when I reload the blog, though the entries show up in the edit section...
