You need a better ISP. My  COX cable account has 25Mbs  down 
and  4Mbs up and most of the time it is faster then that. Trying to 
throttle uploads  in these days of Cloud office  apps, and Cloud 
storage is  suicide for a Internet provider.

  Dropbox has a special feature that will automatically sync anything 
on your camera or camera phone with your account. It will launch as 
soon as you plug your camera in. I have uploaded Gigabytes of video 
from my camera quickly in this very way. In fact if you upload 3GB of 
photo or video files using this method Dropbox will give you another 
3GB of storage for free, for life.

The app also does sizing, editing, and provides viewing all which 
comes into play here. I am guessing that having the app installed on 
my computer is what allowed me to view the Dropbox thumbnail in full 
screen from within my browser... which happens to be Opera.
