Data

Below lies almost all of the data that I collected throughout this project. The full Excel spreadsheet with locations and a bit more info can be found here. All speeds are in Bytes a second. These were measured by users around the country using Hexlet LLC's free Bmeter program. Users who submitted more than one entry were counted, along with those that only submitted averages. Cost was caculated by using the latest prices on April 17th, 2003 from Handspring.com.
