Yes, it's going to happen, Road Runner had already confrimed that it was going 
to happen sometime in summer.  It's only a matter of time.  Oh this can also be 
found in the news post I made like 2 months ago :)

I know Time Warner (Road Runner) has contemplated this for awhile but they 
keep putting it off due to possible feedback they'd receive as well as possibly 
stiffling their growth. I've always wondered why people complain about a 
$40/month service - if you want bandwidth - go get a T1 ;) j/k. As long as 
the "cap" is what they currently allow, it wouldn't be that big of a deal to me - I 
don't do the warez (I actually BUY CDs) to often - mostly just like the bandwidth 
for games.

If they do decide to put a cap on it, is there any other type of broadband 
connection to go with that will give us the bandwidth without a cap?
I have heard talk about Satalite, has anyone heard anything good about it?

The only "true" way of getting an uncapped service would be via a dedicated line 
(fractional/full T1 or T3, OC3, etc.). Every other system has some sort of 
software cap in place from what I understand, being that they can control/limit it 
via their routers. Satellite has gotten alot better than it used to be but don't think I'd 
still trust it due to you're starting to deal with space and solar radiation which can 
cause interference/delay. Personally I hope they lower my bill due to lack of data -
 haha - make them leechers pay - maybe it'll get to a point where it's cheaper to 
actually buy something than download.
It's definately not a good idea though considering the fact that all these 
companies want you to do everything online. Imagine if you re-installed Windows 
on your machine at least once a week - you'd be wasting alot of your allocated 
data transfers just from re-running/installing patches and what have you.
