| Mathematical communications breakthrough
Think what this could do for the distribution of broadband if they perfect a technology that will do this on a dialup connection? Wow

could you just imagine what broadband would be like??
that would be cool for dial-up users too....
{edit} looks like storm2k beat me to it..

I wonder how much processing power that would take to decompress.
You know how long Winzip takes to decompress something, and thats not too too compressed.
Imagine how long it would take to decompress 1:10 compression
A 128/196kpbs MP3 would finally fit on a floppy though | |

2 years? i think longer... i mean they'r ejust rolling out regular broadband now and they have yet to better 56K and that's been out for almost four years... | |

one nice thing about it, is it shouldn't require the phone companies themselves to upgrade hardware.
Much like 56k its all on the side of the ISP's
Although hard telling how much the modems will be
for compressing/decompressing at that rate, with that compression ratio damn near need a PIII-850 with 64MB RAM on the modem LOL

Bla, bla, bla.... I'll believe it when I see it. I once took a bath in a company that claimed to have a "great new compression" technology that would "revolutionize the world of digital media". | |

I can see that the future of this has great possiblities. As for its implementation? Here is how to make it work. Use/ make a modem that is like a AGP card but for modem things. You know with its own processor so it doesnt task your mobo processor and stack it with tons of ram say 1GB so you never feel the lag. This way as your modem is unpacking it can continuely get more intel, and just think how much more wired you could be...
(I dont know maybe I worked to long today)
