		<description>Oh boy... Looks like it's starting to happen... Read this bit from my favorite tech news site... &lt;a href="http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20080603-40gb-for-55-per-month-time-warner-bandwidth-caps-arrive.html" rel="nofollow"&gt;Ars Technica&lt;/a&gt;. 

&lt;blockquote&gt;The caps differ depending on the tier of service paid for by the consumer. The lowest level of service is a 768Kbps connection with a 5GB cap for $29.95 per month. The high-end package will offer 15MBps with a 40GB cap for $54.90 per month. Consumers will pay by the gigabyte for consumption in excess of the established caps. Customers will be able to see how much bandwidth they have left by visiting the Time Warner Cable web site.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

So that would make my Charter efforts - like... $150 a month? Of course - full speed all the time could be outrageous. Now that I have 10MB service and the availability of 16MB already, I could be looking at 3.1TB a month for 10MB or 5TB a month for 16MB... So - like $5,000 a month? OUCH!</description>
