Day Late and Dollar Short

FiOS people have spoken...

Wow, and how many FiOS subs are there out of the millions upon millions of BB customers?

FiOS isn't a cure-all for anything, especially for those outside Verizon's service area.

All this FiOS fanboyism reminds me of the pre-capped OOL days when everyone was comparing everything to OOL..."Well my OOL is 10Mb, uR teh suk". Sure, great if you can get OOL.

Great if you can get FiOS.

Yea, and I won't mention about the caps that OOL started implementing either. Thats besides the point though.

I agree with what you are saying. I predict that a vast majority of comcast customers will be on 3.0 before FIOS is deployed nationally. Mainly because of the cost.

no it doesn't. Fiber will eventually be necessary but that is a long ways away. HFC networks are more than capable of handling bandwidth needs for at least the next 10 years, probably longer.

Cable bills DO NOT go down PERIOD!
Only thing docsis 3.0 is going to do is enable providers to load even more subs on a node.
