Most ppl would go for stability than bandwidth....I know many users on 1-4Mbps fiber but hardly use its full bandwidth. They&#39;d rather its always there when they need it rather than enjoy &quot;bursts&quot; of it.<div><br>
</div><div>Also, the average user (email, facebook, twitter, newsfeeds, occasional 3-4min video/audio streaming) should be content with a stable 3g connection ( average 800Kbps -1.5Mbps).</div><div><br></div><div>As with all mature markets in other parts of the world, if you are really bandwidth hungry then please explore other options other than mobile internet: fiber or WiMAX.</div>
