Peter Heinzmann didn't tell exactly that. It was just my assumption out of our talk about several topics. Anyway, I'm a disappointed regarding Swisscom's press release. They say mostly 210k throughput should be possible, however this is just not true - this would say that even the best ADSL providers of today's Saldo listing [1] would be slow (max throughput of 181k). It feels like Swisscom needs to put lipstick on the pig. F.
