i've had a stick for a few years now. nice little things. you can even get routers where you can plug the stick into and run several laptops off of. i've never done much of any uploading. uploaded a video to youtube once and it seemed to work better than my home cable connection (though this is because rogers fucks with the upstream i assume).
