How do we find out what markets and if we qualify for any part of this?
You can call:
»www.covad.com/services/index.html
For broadband questions or orders
800-636-3500
Or check availability at your address here for 6000/768 service. If you qualify for that, you may qualify for the higher speeds mentioned in the story when they make them available:

Don't do a qualification if you don't want a sales call, because they'll call you to see if you want to buy shorty after. A couple hours after I checked to see if I qualified, some Covad sales agent called from an unlisted number. Lame.

Nice...
They say "Covad broadband services are not available at your location."
BUT
I know for a fact they are in the CO my Verizon DSL is served by.

Unless they don't do RT's ? ?

That is the reason. Their ADSL2+ DSLAMs are only co-located in COs.

ADSL2+ is only on dedicated loop so it does not work through RT's. Only shared line ADSL will work through an RT.

You could easily have a dedicated loop from a Remote to a Residence if Covad located their LPV/ADSL2+ DSLAMs in Remotes (obviously where there is room and it may need to be a mini-DSLAM due to space restrictions).

"Line sharing" in of itself is neither Remote only or CO only. It is just line sharing.

There is a pattern of Covad (line sharing) not being in Remotes either and it is from the ILEC's not wanting to share the RT enabled customers keeping Covad for the most part in the CO only.
