I wanted to reply the first time around but since Dr.Ranjan gave a satisfactory reply I did not.
You are exposing your extremely "poor" mathematical skills on this list.
What do you understand by an ordinary dial-up modem external modem (56000 bps) connecting at 40Kbps where v.90/Flex technology is available? It means that 40,000/8 ~ 5KBytes/sec of data is transferred per second. I get on an average of 3.7KBytes/sec of throughput on my V.90 Dialup modem.
So if even a dialup modem gives a throughput of 3.7KBytes per second other broadband options SHOULD give your more. Its Bytes/sec and not bits/sec in RIM's case.
