Beta 2: Internet "dramatic speed increase"

Will Vista Beta 2 actually include the "dramatic speed increase" for the internet as mentioned in the Channel 9 video (Networking in Vista - 14:10) back in Nov 2005? I don't expect a 40x increase as mentioned in the video, but it would be nice to see a 3-5x improvement. Personally I would consider that a "dramatic increase". Also, in the video DSL is specifically mentioned, will we see the same benefits if we are using a cable modem?
Thanks, Thad

Well, they mean general networking as well. Don't forget that at the moment, it says by standard 100Mbps between a client and a server - it only runs about a third of this generally (thereabouts) but now it'll be nearer the 90% mark I've heard :o)
