From the FAQ:
Is this offering a tiered service? How does Google's position on Net Neutrality effect TiSP?
Although we understand that there's a lot of crap on the web, we also believe strongly in providing equal opportunity access to all our users. While we won't limit your surfing choices, we do offer three levels of TiSP service:
Trickle, The #2, Royal Flush
Actual speeds will vary, depending on network traffic and sewer line conditions. Users with low-flow toilets may simultaneously experience a saving-the-environment glow and slower-data-speed blues.
Why is TiSP in beta?
When things go wrong with TiSP, they go very, very wrong. Let's leave it at that.
:heh:
The help forum is quite funny too.

4 www.thinkgeek.com Multiple fake 'Geek Toys' Including Wii Helmet and 8-bit tie
This is one a few friends and I did fall for -- (at 3am in the morning as we were really tired). Granted, it looks like ThinkGeek WILL be making the 8-bit tie as so many people e-mailed them about it.
