Scott:

It's my understanding that max connection speeds are dependent more upon the 
quality of the phone line connection than anything else.

I regularly dial in from 3 different locations in Phoenix, and my connection 
speeds (send) are something like:

28.8  (5%)
26.4  (20%)
24.0  (40%)
21.6  (25%)
19.2  (10%)

I'm using a Megahertz X-Jack V.34 modem with the latest firmware.
