EDITOR'S NOTE

Good afternoon,

There's an interesting report out today that finds ADSL connections in some instances faster than ADSL2+ services from some of Australia's biggest ISPs.

You might also find the top five ISPs surprising to say the least - yes, Telstra are top of the list but some of the other inclusions sparked some fierce debate in our offices.

Have a read and let us know what you think too.
