My ISP is Nucleus (based out of Calgary, AB) so I get my ADSL from
them.  And it's 1.5MB download and 640k upload speeds I believe.  But I
get to do pretty much anything I like with it except for streaming
audio/video, and I got 7 static IP addresses so it works out pretty
good.  And many people have said it's faster than when I was using SHAW
for the @home cable connection (for my website and FTP downloads and
such).  Go figure.  =)

BTW, I'm in Edmonton, AB.
