It took them long enough, but the FCC has finally made the change, saying that
768kbps is now the low-end cut off to be considered broadband. This change was
announced back in March -- at which point the FCC still ignored its own recommendation and released broadband data that kept the 200kbps cutoff. However, as of last Friday, those of you surfing below 768kbps (which, unfortunately, seems to include my home DSL connection) are officially kicked out of the broadband pool. Welcome to the slow lane.
