Ah thanks Mr. Hanky,

I knew someone out there would be sympathetic to my plight of lousy telcos and a wife who monitors the joint account!

758K sound pretty small. I thought they were closer to 15MB.

If the latter is right, it would be a race between the download competing and my retirement party!

Any other experiences, especially a bricks and mortar option.

Cheers
