Do you enjoy your DSL or cable connection? Have you enjoyed your DSL connection for more than 6 years as I have? Wouldn't you like a faster connection? If so, you need to move to another country.

According to the Bandwidth Report , the United States is now behind perennial technical powerhouses like Iceland, Finland and Hong Kong.

The news gets worse.

We have a long way to go to catch the number one country, South Korea. The Koreans have 85% high speed penetration while the US is stuck at less than 50%. Of those 50% very few have a connection faster than cable or DSL.
