I've had Cogeco (180down/20up) in the suburbs and currently have Rogers (250down/20up) in downtown Toronto without caps. Rogers charges a bit extra for it, but no-cap plans are definitely available.

I completely disagree with this. Cogeco kicks the pants off of the options available in downtown SF in my experience.
I knew him from SEO land - we met in London in 2002. My favorite thing about Martin is that he would call (always on the phone, never by email) out of the blue with completely random requests. The last one I got from him, two weeks before he died, was to run a Hitwise report on some random website. Because it was Martin, you never asked why, but he was already ready to return the favor in any way he could.
I remember when Shak told me that he died. It was a sad day indeed.
