| Because..
in much of the country it unfortunately doesn't make economic sense for FTTP, DOCSIS 3.0 to the home with triple play and wireless, so less ambitious deployments settle into less competition amongst providers.
although I think those numbers about deployment are wrong.. (Verizon will overlap more of the cable footprint than projected) announced projections will sharply contrast with reality on the ground five years from now.. and who knows what the regulatory environment will be.. much less to say which companies will be left standing.. or what technologies will be at consumer's finger tips, need we go on to speculate what pricing will be? |

I boldly predict that AT&T, Comcast and Verizon won't be scrounging dumpsters for their dinner in 2012. In fact I will go so far as to predict executives for those particular companies will be able to buy very nice boats. I know, it's a bold prediction, but I feel confident. |

Do you mean their top executives and largest shareholders, or everyone down to the least-paid employees? I wouldn't be so sure about those at the lower end of the org. chart. |
