Re: What Credibility?
Other companys that could afford to invest arent, because they have no competition/reason to. For around 8 years we've had DSL here, I figure that is enough profit made by SBC/ATT to have upgraded our area 2x+ over.
I'll praise Verizon when they offer FIOS in my area, oh but they cant, this is SBC/ATT territory.
They are definitly smarter than SBC/ATT by investing into thier network to compete better with cable, small isp, and cell providers. Even at 20/20 it still would put us behind the world standings.
Its risky not to invest in infrastructure, even if they can only make more profit (Urban), and less profit (rural areas) they should still have to serve areas in thier "territory" or give up the urban areas near where they wont deploy.
If you want your cake, you must eat more vegetables and meat like substance. UK translation, How can ye have any pudding if ye dont eat yer meat?
Having 1 company that is better than the rest of our lousy 15th place standing is better than nothing, so "atta boy" Verizon.
I can almost hear ye now.
