    I'm thinking of getting freeserve (or wandoo or whatever they're calling themselves now) broadband.

    Does anyone know is it capped? or will i start being charged more once i've donwloaded a couple of gigs each month?

    Cheers,
    Hugo.

    I don't know if it's capped, but I'd advise you to look into other ISPs, such as Pipex and Eclipse, rather than freeserve
    On a given day or given circumstance, you think you have a limit.
    And you then go for this limit and you touch this limit and you think "Ok, this is the limit".
    As soon as you touch this limit, something happens and you suddenly can go a little bit further.
    With your mind power, your determination, your instinct and the experience as well, you can fly very high.

    No freeserve is not capped and it is a very good service.

    Do a full update on the groulisting for newsgroups, filter to only show binary groups and then list the top ten groups in the list and the number of posts at last update. Then compare them to Pipex below and see how Freeserve are
