Makes me envious!!!
When I work at home (my preference by far) I've got 5 miles of copper to the nearest exchange - which itself is not much more than a shack at the edge of town. 3Mbs up 400K down (if I'm lucky).
OTOH it's a bit like using a low spec machine for development - makes you think twice about the amount of data you push around :-}
