"What will people find to do with 100Mbps? It's hard to say, from an application point of view, what services will make best use of speeds that high. File downloads will benefit of course and the faster upload will really help people that send large files or host services."
What 'herbie' forgot to mention is that many other services will benefit from faster speeds which include online TV applications such as BBC's iPlayer, YouTube and Hulu along with the improvement of online gaming quality and voice over IP services from the likes of Skype.
