Cox is pushing hard to upgrade their speeds in their systems with Verizon's FIOS hitting the market in certain areas (it's operational in a few parts of this region). I finally got my upgrade over night, it's 15Mbps down and 2Mbps up...very sweet indeed...
Here's a test off this one site running a Gigabit network, very good speedtest page.

The slowest link in the end-to-end path is a 10 Mbps Ethernet subnet
