Not exactly. Shapelock is a brand of polymorph plastic. This is just the generic stuff. Same thing – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polycaprolactone

Also, don’t ever move to Australia if you value your internet.
We still have data caps. F***ing sucks.
$70US/month for a 20mbit/1mbit link and I only get 60GB of download before I’m slowed to 64k/64k :( – and that’s one of the best value plans, our national telco (Telstra) only gives you 25Gb for US$80!

It’s not that expensive. This is an enterprise-grade guaranteed-bandwidth link.
The links you’re all getting for <$100US/month are not 1:1 commitment. This means your carrier might be selling 100/100 links, but on a 1000/1000 backbone – so if they have more than 10 customers, you’re not all going to get the full bandwidth.
An enterprise grade link does not do this. The carrier won’t oversell. This is why the bandwidth costs so much – but at least you KNOW you’ll get it. With a 100/100 fiber link for a consumer, it’s “up to 100mbps”. You’ll only get that so long as there’s enough room on the backbone.
$200/Month for a 2mbit 1:1 link is actually pretty damn good.
