I guess I am saying reliable and extremely consistent speed. I mean using that at school is a challenge for a lot of people. I can't get fios yet and I am stuck with this inconsistent, horrible connection that works excellent only after midnight at home.

In general, that's very true for a lot of places in the US. While I can find a lot of free wifi in NYC these days, they are slow and some of them aren't secured either. So while chromeOS might be secure as OS, I still don't quite trust the connection.
