oh I don't know, I pay $65/mo total, and I get 1544 down and 128 up, and 5
static IPs... seems like the only advantage you have is the faster upstream,
but you don't have any statics.. so.... without the statics, the extra
upstream doesn't do much good :)

Seems like ADSL services in Japan is better than in the US.
Currently, I pay $30/mo for Qwest(phone company) and $17/mo
for ISP. Bandwidth is 256K-640K down and 227K upstream, but
the actual download speed is around 40KB/sec. There is no
ISPs around here in NM which provide static IPs. Too bad.
