Europe Leads the U.S. (Again), This Time in Muni Wi-Fi (Ziff Davis).

This matches my experience in recent trips to the old continent (France and Italy), where I found that  3-4 Mbits/sec at less than $50 / month is becoming common:

"I am in the U.S. quite often (I have dual citizenship and the only reason I live in Amsterdam is that my husband is Dutch) and am shocked to see how slow and expensive broadband is. "

I still remember when the 700 kbits/sec I still get from SBC in the Bay Area felt like cutting edge!
