"My own speedtest done shows these ugly truths. My area is right at the edge of coverage, and I get 2.4Mbps AT BEST. My trip while in the bus to KLCC with my trust netbook and Wiggy on, fluctuates between 1.4-1.9Mbs, and while at the water fountain infront of KLCC, only 1.5Mbps, nothing more. This is far from their claimed 10Mbps speed"

I believe the claim by them is upto 10Mbps but not dedicated 10Mbps or guaranteed 10Mbps.

From your test, it seems that you are still be able to get 1.4-1.9Mbps which I feel is considered as good.

I believe in wireless network point of view, only if you are alone connecting under the basestation at a distance very close to the basestation that you will be able to get the full speed.

It's the same for 3G/HSPA and other wireless technology. How many people can actually get 7.2Mbps or 3.6Mbps all the time.

Previously some people have tested to be able to reach 5Mbps also.

The 10Mbps is the size of the pipe, how much water can flow thru depends on the number of capacity available during the sharing session.

HSPA device maximum can reach up to 7.2Mbps only not 14.4Mbps.
The value 14.4Mbps is the maximum capacity of the basestation.

I can say DIGI can't demo their speed to reach higher than 7.2Mbps no matter what due to the device limitaiton.
