Re: So?

Time Warner is rolling out similar speeds in their competing with FiOS. Our area just got bumped to 15/2 today. For upload boost I would have expected a bit more from Comcast than 2Mb. 2Mb just brings them on par with some of their tougher competitors like Verizon.

TWC in NYC just now upgraded to 10/512 officially for standard (12/768 for premium), I dont that will change anyones mind who was already planing to get, or has FIOS. For about a year TWC didnt compete at all with FIOS, even though an entire borough (NYC is made of 5 counties, called "boroughs") is covered in FIOS (Staten Island), and its available in a large quadrant of another borough (Bayside in Queens).

I thought TWC is in denial about FIOS, I think it still is. It seriously thinks that it can convince customers to like the TWC brand more than Verizon brand, regardless of anything else.
