Plan name changes and upgrades.

I saw a post on Reddit that the name for Gigablast is going to be changed. It also mentions that Preferred will be renamed "Go Even Faster" and may be related to the speed upgrade to 500Mbps download...

    We are in the process of renaming the internet tiers of service. This will be nationwide and as we make these changes, it will be relayed to customers through the "News from Cox" section of your billing statement. -Dan

This happened while I was out of contact with the world due to a power outage.  My thoughts are that the new name sounds like something someone with a marketing major came up with.

I am going by the old names until they update the website. However I guess the change is to move away from associating top tier service with 1000Mbps(AKA Gigabit) service. GIGablast for 2Gbps service no longer made sense.
