Today I received an email that they have released the first report with another report due at the end of the year. My results do not correspond with the results reflected in the report."It appears that most ISPs are within 80% of their advertised speeds during peak hours with Verizon leading the pack mostly exceeding their advertised rates. Cablevision users, on the other hand, shouldn't expect more than half of the promised bandwidth (youch!).Read more of this story at Slashdot.
