Just for comparison sake, in Hong Kong, a 100Mbs symmetric connection to the home over fiber is $35/mos and a 1000Mbs (gigabit) symmetric connection to the home is $179/mos, including static IPs in a market where they have very little competition. Aren't we tired of getting abused in this country by all of these companies who claim to be value-adding when in fact they are wallet sucking?
