| Re: Verizon to offer 20meg symetrical FiOS No kidding. $65/mo for 20/20 sounds way too good to be true. That'd be awesome for me since I telecommute to work. But I doubt Delaware will ever see the 20/5 profile, let alone the 20/20 profile. Atlantic broadband only offers 16/1, so Verizon has no need to upgrade this area. -- "The Dude abides." | |

| They're offering 20/20 speeds in the NY metro area? THere are so many places in NJ that can't get FIOS anything--TV or Internet. Not saying I'd want their TV, but can't fios internet at all in most places is odd. -- Lets go Giants!! | |

  Vamp 5c077 Premium join:2003-01-28 MD | If it's true then it's a smart move.. It's about time ISPs start offering symmetrical speeds... They should provide 5/5, 20/20 and 50/50.
