That extra pressure on the lines may make them faster

Grats! Telkom adding some value to your life. Always a good thing from the "monopoly"

Can someone explain to me what happens to your data-package - say you had uncapped .512 what happens if your line is now 1mb?

In that case your speed stays at 512

Bummer, such a simple answer :P

a bit unfair of telkom to bump up the 512 kb lines and not the 384 kb lines. I guess they just trying to convince the 384 k peeps to upgrade and leave behind the old so that they can move on to the new.
