Probably $$$ first, and access to rights of way second. Verizon's build-out of the FIOS plant is costing Billions - yes thats with a capital "B", and they already own/maintain rights of way. And even so, the stockholders weren't too thrilled about the massive investment as it hits the bottom line pretty hard in the short term. Longer term - its probably a good move. -- "Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not one bit simpler."- Albert Einstein |
