I'm paying for 1.5Mb, so I'm cool with it. Plus, we're in the styx, so I don't have a plethora of choices anyhow. For about 30 more clams/month, I could upgrade to 6Mb... but I haven't justified it just yet.
(ETA)
I can vividly remember when I was absolutely jazzed when I first purchased my 9600 Hayes modem for about $250.
I'm too lazy to test but I have a 7Mb cable connection and a 3Mb DSL connection.
