Existing VDSL

I've had Qwest's VDSL TV and data since 2001. Although it's been rock-solid, it is showing its age. They recently added an HDTV option, but I've resisted since I have a TiVo and Qwest doesn't offer a CableCard option. They have a waiver for their current platform (on the grounds that it will be sunsetted); I would hope their new platform offers it.

Re: Existing VDSL

The HDTV in Phoenix has its own gateway and separate copper pair. So they are at least not trying to squash it in with the regular three channels and internet.
It is not FTTH but at least each HDTV channel gets its own copper pair the last mile.

 I have had Qwest VDSL, not TV, online only in Scottsdale now for two years. I have never had any downtime. The product is great, but this is a much needed speed increase to compete with Cox in the area. I have called the VDSL techs and they have heard of this upgrade but do not have any dates yet.
