will stall or not allow this? I read about this technology about 15 years ago. We sell better technology overseas than we use here.
2. Oh boy, NetFlix and Hulu in Israel!

It will also make gaming much easier and hopefully attract more business to the Jewish State.
3. how about wireless networks across cities
zionist forever   (01.29.12)
I have an iPad and I find it so annoying I can't go out sit on a bench and use the internet. Free wireless internet networks across the towns & cities should become a national plan and just as important in te 21st century as building roads for cars.
4. Problem Not Just with Companies
EGGM ,   Petah Tikva, Israel   (01.29.12)
You can get 50MB today for a very reasonable price, but most people prefer to stay with 2.5MB or 5MB speeds. Awareness needs to be increased regarding the benefits of high speeds.
5. #3 - correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't such networks very
Henry from New York ,   USA   (01.29.12)
insecure if you don't put your security settings right?
6. takes 2 to tango
chava ,   yerushalayim   (01.30.12)
If the site you're trying to download from has slow equipment, it doesn't matter how speedy your equipment is. I find most of what I do goes quickly enough, but I sit & wait for a few websites
7. And elsewhere on the Ynet site.......
Mike Carmel ,   Rishon le Zion   (01.30.12)
.......we are told by the rabbis to stay away from the internet. Given the demographic changes in Israel expected in the coming years, how do the two fit together eh?
