Re: Big deal said by en102:at&t isn't meant to compete with FiOS... Verizon and at&t don't service the same area. In the whole purpose of statewide franchising AT&T is pushing is so that MORE company's can service an area? If statewide franchising passes in my state why COULDN'T Verizon come in? Since I'm stuck with AT&T I guess I'll have to move to get FIOS then. Funny how Verizon can provide me cell service but somehow are prevented from providing FIOS. |

They could provide service, if they thought they could make a profit at it. But they would have to consider how much business they could steal from the entrenched local telco and local cable and then consider the costs of building infrastructure from scratch. Most times, they couldn't get enough customers to make a profit.

Not sure but Cox is overbuilding in some of the newer housing dev. in the TWC area here in the City of San Diego.So I am assuming it covers all telcom companies and not just the telcos.

This also means that no money for local franchise which cable has to pay. local franchise means you service the whole local area. Statewide or the state franchise means you can pick and chose the areas that you want to service. AT&T plans only to go into the expensive neighborhoods because the rich will pay and like things that are always advertised cheaper. You get what you pay for. |

Boynton Beach, FL | That statement is completely false. AT&T has some of the most advanced facilities in poor neighborhoods because the "sell rate" is highest in those areas. |
