quote: Parts of Tx can already see 30/50 megabits with FIOS.. so this is no big deal... and the price isn't exactly a winner either.
Parts of Japan get 100Mbps fiber for $50/month or less. So what?
Why is this big news? Because a roll out of DOCSIS 2.0 equipment can happen in hours. FTTH requires a huge infrastructure upgrade in areas it isn't already deployed.
It amazes me how short sighted & cheap people can be.
When Charter upgrades my local headend to DOCSIS 2.0 and you are sitting in AT&T land waiting for FIOS who wins then?
Well not me, I have 15Mbps wireless already. |
