Hi Chris,
Yeah, that site does use quite a fair amount of bandwidth.
I'm not exactly sure how much, but, judging by the audio/video quality in full screen resolution, it would be quite high.

If the launch goes ahead on the 10th we will have something to see in the southern hemisphere. Usually the shuttle docking coincides with good northern views.

They've only got to postpone this launch another 5 months plus a few days and we will be there to see it.

I just hope my bandwidth holds out before my internet slows.
I do have a 1GB backup account but that won't last long in HD.
