Can I get Broadband access?

Since we have been talking about the broadband issue in the US and other countries, I decided to look up some stats. The title of a report sums up a lot: China will pass US in Broadband Lines by late 2006 - Worldwide Broadband Survey - US Broadband Penetration Breaks 65% Among Active Internet Users - January 2006 Bandwidth Report. The report's date is January 2006.

I found the stats to be quite interesting. The US leads in the Top 10 Largest Broadband Countries, but Hong Kong and South Korea lead in the Top 20 Countries with Broadband Penetration.




There are several additional charts that yield significant data. The charts range from examining the speed of broadband connectivity at work and home, broadband penetration per household, and the growth of broadband in the US.
