Yes, you are right ! :-))))
When I looked at their website on monday, they mentionned the 30GB
quota, but I just had a look at www.misericable .org , apparently this
quota thing was just outdated info from previous/past offers, and the
numericable website just wasn't fully updated, but now it is, and there
is officially no quota whatsoever, YAHOOOOOO !!!! :o)


> Right now you can call them and switch to this new offer,

Hmmm, really ? Did they manage to switch you to 30MBps ?
In the forum at misericable.org , many people called the customer
service/hotline, asking to be switched, and many of them got told to
call back in a week or two, in early September !
Well I will call anyway, first thing monday morning :-)
On misericable.org they also give the list of compatible modem....
luckily mine is apparently compatible (Thomson TCM390), so let's rock
and roll !! :o)

Ohhhh, I don't know a thing about usenet and newsgroups, never used one
before... do I need to install a special program to read this a
newsgroup, how does it work ?? Can I just copy/paste the URI you gave
me, in a web browser address bar or something ? Probably not...
