1 edit | I think I just lost my lunch all over my keyboard He doesn't want to offer a service that's not state of the art?
What the he** is uverse?
Mr Stephenson, it is the state of the future demise of your company.
It is a disaster.
It is so uncompetitive for a next generation service compared to the cable companies and fios to be the laughing stock of the broadband world.
Sir, you have 51,000 customers at last count.
Out of ALL this time you've been rolling it out.
Have you been to the uverse forum on this website? I don't think i've seen anything as unexciting as that place since my last visit to a dentists office for a tooth extraction.
Have you seen FIOS's latest numbers? They're HUGE! Over 200,000 new customers in just one quarter alone!
Mr Stephenson..your company is losing that many landlines per quarter. comcast is ripping you to shreds with their slowsky commercials...fios is kicking your butts every which way but loose,
DOCSIS 3.0 is ON it's way!
Sir, you will be competing then against the likes of 50 to 75Mb cable and more.
And Fios that's at least at those speeds.
And...your next generation service is..6Mb that's really 5.5 in disguise?
Do you understand that your DEMISE is at hand?
Do you understand that you'll be selling 386sx computers in the face of the core2 duo revolution?
Do you understand....ANYTHING at all Mr. Stephenson?
MR GORBACHEV..err..Stephenson......TEAR DOWN THAT WALL..Errr..I mean those VRADS!!
And let's get with the program..OK? |

| I really think you might be right.
I really find it funny the banter of the fanaticals here (Rick and Batterup come to mind)
Sometimes insightful, usually funny, but it really adds character to the site. |

Personally, I think they'll actually build MORE VRAD's to increase the speed, as the local loop will be shorter. There are those that already have sync rates above 100Mbps... they're just not using it all.
I think part of the reason only 51,000 customer have it, is that with all those VRADs out there...most of them are still not active. I.e. Santa Clarita was live in May, they 'just' built the VRAD last month, and it has power, but I still can't get Uverse. |

1 edit | Considering that where they are here, it shouldn't have any impact. I.e. they're ALL between the backyard cinder block wall and the street. None of them here are in anyone's front yard (none that I've seen anyways). They now have VRADs at both ends of my HOA (~420 homes)
