>Yeah but the problem is that all the other carriers will do the same thing....this is how the 10gb limit got started...then it was 5gb... now one of them switches to 2gb and all the other's will follow.

It does look strange that the generally available bandwidth should go down, when the tendency has been for it to go up all the time.

How does this cap work in practice, anyway? Once you reach your limit (a) you have to pay extra, (b) you can't connect at all, (c) you connect only at a slow speed, (d) some other method?
