Broadband
One nice thing about living in the Seattle area is that we have a high concentration of geeks and that makes us interesting to many different types of service providers. FIOS is well on it's way to world domination (still not at my house unfortunately) but Comcast isn't rolling over. I'm currently running on a 16Mbps down 2Mbps up connection and I must say it's a nice improvement over the old 6/1 service. I particularly notice the upstream difference since I regularly remote desktop into my home machine from work.
Now the news has come out that Comcast will start offering 150Mbps down and 100Mbps up next year! While details are sparse, this must mean the spread of their DOCSIS 3.0 rollout. Luscious. I guess that means I'll need to upgrade all my networking gear to gigabit. I'll need a new cable modem too since my current one is only DOCSIS 2.0. These are small problems though. Imagine how sweet that will be!
