not that fast, 187.5KB/s download speed

Actually, a 1.5Mbps it is fast. My download speed is 185.3 KB/s. My upload speed is 46.4 KB/s.

I could download a 60MB file in just 4 minutes.

I could download a DVD movie in less than a day. (Legally of course ;).)

For an average user, this is the best connection. Fast and cheap. Unless there's another faster connection and a cheap price, then thats another story.

Yes for the average user it is great. But for someone who like to legally download things ;) or very large files, a faster connection would be needed. I think we have a 3mbps for $29.99 here

Location 1: Bangkok, Thailand

ISP: Buddy Broadband

Speed: 2048/512 kbps

Price: 650 Baht (€13 or $20) / month

Location 2: Chiang Mai, Thailand

ISP: MaxNet

Speed: 1024/512 kbps

Price: 1070 Baht (€21,50 or $34) / month

now i'm not sure that living in a capital city is much more expensive... *sigh*

bSAYZ:

Suppose if you're online all day:

12 data calls (for 24 hours a day) times 3 baht (plus 0,21 baht of 7% VAT that will be 3,21 baht)

= 38,52 baht / day

= 1155,60 baht / month (30 days)

that's a lot.
