[wdvltalk-social] Gb/s and Kb/s

[joseph harris]

I haven't done the obvius and checked, but I was told it was 
Gigabits, not bytes for broadband.    ;-) And I get into flops 
all the time...

Apparently the Stanford deal started in 2006, under the umbrella 
ofthe Carribean Cricket body.   And the forward deal was being 
signed in September.    I am assuming that no firther news means 
the deal went through and the2008 winners of it are to get 
$1million.

That would make the England team permanently paralytic for the 
next few years don't you think?
