PS. I just did a speed test on my phone and got a result of 1.62Mbps, which isn't bad for a 3G network I think, but it was noticeable during that the transfer rate dropped off quickly the longer the test ran, unlike through wifi where I got a speed of 10Mbps which suggests the wifi here is old as I get 60mbps when connected through a cable.Please 'like' our facebook page http://www.facebook.com/motorsportforums

Not everybody would want to avail themselves of those options - my dad for example rejects the entire notion of internet shopping and as a result wastes a fortune on certain items - but he should have the right to internet access if he so wishes.
For may of us it's not a concern, but imagine you're a househound pensioner in the middle of nowhere who finds it impossible to get to the bank. It's only right and proper that they have the means to access their account online.Useful F1 Twitter thingy: http://goo.gl/6PO1u

It might be covered in here, but then again as an American you don't actually have this right at law, and by the sounds of things probably don't want it either.The Old Republic was a stupidly run organisation which deserved to be taken over. All Hail Palpatine!

Here more and more public and other services can be done using internet, like for instance extend book loans from the library, so it's very much like Dave said earlier.
