Unlimited sounds Limited

Broadband Internet connection is advertised with a main caption as "UNLIMITED".Using broadband for more than 1 year still sounds limited , similar to a dial up but in a different way.

The corporate offered us 300MB as free upload/download for a month.So we tried to make our usage within 300 MB.Later they increased to 400MB,so we thought,"O.K let's use some more and take care that finally comes within 400MB.Rarely we cross the limit and pay for the extra usage.Then don't know what made the corporate to be more liberal and gave us 512MB.Yet the same story.....

Now 1000MB free upload/download.Happy to have 1000MB alloted but still limited to explore the World Wide Web.From the day 1 ,checking everyday for the usage and planning for the next day's usage...doesn't sound limited that too with a broadband?

My mother says"How much ever the corporate allocates us,still we feel limited and need more...." and laughs.That's true!

hmm..i dont get it with the limited access with broadband service..

in m'sia, broadband is being monopoly by one company but itstill offers unlimited access for a flat rate..

i dont feel any burden subcribing to it..now, we can even purchase prepaid hotspot cards (wirelss) for a small fee for a month access..
