    yes but you are still going to have to pay your ISP more to benefit from this upgrade, which is kinda bullshit IMO

    How is it bullshit, the line rental prices are in effect just being lowered, which is great. If you were with Telkom as your ISP, you'd still have to pay THEM to increase the actual account. Can't just expect the ISP's to lower their actual prices just because line rental is going down (which we have all been asking for :P)

    if telkom can give me a 1mb cicuit at a 2mb's price, why can't my ISP do the same?

    come now, we all need to work together here
