India's broadband speeds are on a decline! We can thank ISP Fair Usage Policies for it...

" According to a report by Akamai, a firm that runs a globally distributed network of servers, in India the average internet speed was 0.8mbps in Q3 of 2010. This, according to the report, amounted to a -6.9% quarterly decline and a -9.1% yearly decline. India was the only country to see the fall in internet speed among the 12 Asian countries that were covered in the study. "

It's forums like these which make me desperate for Hayai to launch in India. No other ISP is willing to sacrifice their ridiculous profit margins.
