My friend Aristo showed a banner on the net, which was Japanese (he translated for me). This is what is amazing. It said over there you can get a 10mb a second, Fiberoptic line connection for $30 a month. OMG, for that price over here you can get a 1-2mb a sec ADSL connection.
That shows how far a head they are over there. I wish I lived in Japan.
