Falling for fibre

I'm using the superb Jungledisk to back up my laptop (hat tip: Andy). Because I've shifted my Documents folder around on my laptop from one hard drive to the other I'm having to re-upload it all.

Time to complete: 1-2 days for 3Gb.

Or to put it another way, I'm going to have to wait a month with my DSL line working flat out 24×7 to backup my 30Gb of family photo photos online from my home server.

And they say there's no demand for fibre? Well, I'm not alone in disagreeing.
