Yeah Cablevision will probably deploy this in places where there is 20/5 FIOS for 45$ per month. Does this mean Verizon may crank up speeds to as much as 100/100? Does this mean Verizon may actually be at a disadvantage with their upload being 155 per node? or is the new Cablevision technology also shared.
CV fiber has the same limitations as VZ.

VZ has up to 32 users per fiber backhauled all the way to CO. How many CV customers are there per fiber strand? I bet its more.

My point being, if CV doesn't have the network infrastructure to provide the bandwidth end to end then providing a 100/100Mbps connection to a user is pointless. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,16353893 Thu, 22 Jun 2006 13:37:28 EDT Re: Unveiled this week??? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,16353778 grandpinaple : Yeah Cablevision will probably deploy this in places where there is 20/5 FIOS for 45$ per month.

I understand R&D perfectly, along with the price associated with it. However, if you think they just happen to get that extra 100mhz or 300mhz to release that next process through some amazing development discovery you my friend are the ignorant one. Though I do not believe you are making that claim, but if you are then I call a duck a duck.

My claim is simply that Intel knows what each new processor is fully capable of at the time of development. They CHOOSE to release that new processor in slight increments to aide in the recovery of that R&D. Which is contrary to releasing the best product they can at a price the market will bear.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,16353425 Thu, 22 Jun 2006 12:37:52 EDT Re: Unveiled this week??? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,16353302 TheOtherPete :

It's going to be a year or two until we see this really start rolling out in some places in CV's territory. Reason? FIOS rollouts need to catchup and put some more heat on CV. CV just finished their rollout of free 15/2 to everyone, so now Verizon needs to do something to counteract that.
VZ has already countered by raising the FIOS speeds (at no additional charge) from 15/2 to 20/5 in the areas it competes with CV.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,16353302 Thu, 22 Jun 2006 12:24:40 EDT Re: Unveiled this week??? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,16353209 EngineerDave : You, Sir, are ignorant about product development. New products have higher prices because the producer of the product has to recoup their R&D costs.

For example, when the Motorola Razr was first released it was priced at $200 ($300 maybe?). Now you can get one for less than $100. Also, as the product life cycle continues, we see different variations of that product. In this example it is different colors.

So, my point is that you are incorrect to assume that a company arbitrarily sets a high price because they just feel like it. The price is higher initially because of the costs involved with developing that product.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,16353209 Thu, 22 Jun 2006 12:13:03 EDT Re: Unveiled this week??? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,16353207 Tzale :

I thought CV was touting this service/technology last year : »Cablevision 100Mbps

How could the hardware just be available now, one year later?
Because not until now did they perfect the technology required to provide this service to all in a large geographic area.

It's going to be a year or two until we see this really start rolling out in some places in CV's territory. Reason? FIOS rollouts need to catchup and put some more heat on CV. CV just finished their rollout of free 15/2 to everyone, so now Verizon needs to do something to counteract that.
