Unless you're in the depths of rural Germany. My village
(Rehlingen, near Nittel, Rheinland-Pfalz) won't get ADSL for years,
if ever. I'm the lucky one in the village, having an ISDN line. DT
will not install another one - ever. A 2OMb download takes around
10 minutes. The best the rest of the village can do is a very flaky
wireless connection to Luxembourg. I used to live in a bigger
village in Czech Republic. There the local telephone exchange was
analogue and still used pulse-dialling! Even ISDN was impossible
there. I got by with a wireless link direct to Prague, 17Km away.
The advertised max range was 10Km. The connection went down if it
snowed (all winter near enough) or rained or a bird sat on the
antenna!<br>
<br>
Having said all that, a 20 hour download for AP v2b608 would be
acceptable! :-D<br>
<br>

<div>Oh, come now. Downloading each beta takes just a few seconds
more than a minute; installing it similarly takes about thirty
seconds; and the time limit is, what, a month? I really don't
think this is a hassle at all, let alone worth complaining
about.</div>

I respect your interest in making v2 a thing of beauty and
functional <br>
integrity. It is a credit to you already.<br>
<br>
Please ship, so I don't have to keep downloading these
time-limited <br>
betas. As far as I'm concerned, it's ready.<br>
<br>
As always, it's your decision.<br>
