It looks like we will seeing broadband speeds increasing upwards to what currently seems like a limitless level of 100mbps.

This technology is not years down the road, but maybe a year, as it might be released next fall.

Teleste is running a field-trial with cable TV service provider Essent in Netherlands, but not yet at the top speeds it expects most homes will need in a few years time.

“Based on our research 30 Megabits per second is the absolute minimum in future homes. Just one TV program would take 10-20 Megabits per second of this alone. So, very fast we would reach a need for 30 Megabits, and also for 50 Megabits per second,” Pekka Rissanen, a Teleste executive told a news conference.
