What's broadband to you?

In Canada, when we talk consumer broadband (for the Internet) we are talking generally a megabit a second "ish" and often considerably higher. Naturally many servers and network congestion makes attaining this not always possible, but for the most part we are very fortunate in our broadband connectivity and capacity.

That said, I am curious what broadband means or implies elsewhere on the planet in regards to the Internet.

I ask because things have changed considerably in the last 5 years. When I was living in Munich, ISDN was broadband (and expensive). When I was living in Singapore, 56k was pretty much all you could get, but now I understand they have laid fibre all over the country. Is DSL in California still limited? Any insight would be helpful to me.

Thanks in advance.
