Re: pretty soon

"Fiber in the home is not near ready for the average home, heck you don't even see it in majority of multimillion dollar homes now."

Yea yea.. bla bla.. the same thing was said about broadband in general. in 1998 when DSL really started to become popular at $89.99 a month for 256 maxing out at 1.5, no one thought that it was be up to 6mb in a short time either. No one thought cable would be pushing 16 meg / 2meg... BB has only been around for about 8 years in reality and look at where we are.. so please, tell me.. how can you be so sure that it will be 50 years..?

..and no one really "needs" the internet. If they did, it would be classified as a utility.
