1.   America Online Inc. and three other companies said they will test modems that can provide Internet connections at faster speeds.

2.   And cable offers a much faster speed and better applications.

3.   And the faster speeds make it easier for them to get in and out of a system quickly.

4.   Arapahoe will accomplish faster speeds by using fewer lines and serial technology rather than the parallel architecture of the PCI standard.

5.   As the components of the circuits are squeezed closer and closer together, they can exchange information at increasingly faster speeds.

6.   Balls can travel at speeds faster than a John Smoltz fastball.

7.   Because of the faster speeds that a digital network can provide for transmitting data, digital phone networks are able to handle such mobile treats as wireless Internet services.

8.   Both introduced similar machines at almost the same time last year that used new technology to offer more realistic images and faster game speeds than existing players.

9.   A slightly more expensive model may also provide faster speed, crisper graphics, and the ability to play more sophisticated games.

10.   But Motorola is also planning software-based systems that will allow direct connections to advanced digital telephone services that operate at faster speeds.
