CNET: “An emerging high-speed Internet standard in Europe holds potential for faster download speeds and broader
availability for many U.S. businesses–if they’re willing to wait a while.

Although DSL speeds vary widely, the new G.SHDSL could be two to three times faster than most versions of DSL
targeted at business customers. The G.SHDSL standard also can deliver data farther than earlier DSL technologies,
which are limited to a relatively short distance.”
