the latency will probably be the same regardless of the sync rate of the line, so it will appear to be roughly the same speed for anything using less than 2Mbit sustained, i.e average webbrowsing etc, but 10Mbit is faster if you're downloading anything bigger than a few megs at a time.
AFAIK there is no cable in Aberdeen yet anyway.
I haven't really had any problems with BT, the dect/voip service is reliable and when you offset the free calls against the cost of the subscription it works out fairly cheap.
