You are right, the upload speed is the same as 512 kbs, however in the
future there is something called SDSL which has equal upstream and
downstream speeds. The one downside is that with SDSL you won't be able to
use a phone/fax via a splitter down the same line -- you will need a
dedicated line for your PC and a separate one for your phone/fax.
Of course it will probably take BT many years to introduce this system too.

SDSL has been available for some time now. You won't like the prices
though....
