AT&T's Advertised DSL Speed vs Reality?

Does anyone connect at AT&T's advertised DSL speed?

According to technicians at AT&T, my phone line is capable of 9 Mb per
second.

I have had the Pro Package which is supposed to be up to 3 Mb per
second "depending on customer location" but I always connected at
about 2400 kbs.

What does "depending on customer location" mean, if not what the wire
is capable of handling?

By the way; Since I know I will get 2400 kbps if I go with the Pro
Package again, I'm wondering what will I get if I go with the Express
Package?

Anybody have the Express Package? What is your real connection speed?

Thank you.
