 CorydonCultivant son jardinPremium join:2008-02-18 Denver, CO | I think Comcast and Verizon have this one right... The last big jump in broadband speeds (from dialup to DOCSIS and DSL) led to a quantum leap in online services which we are still digesting today.
With faster speeds, one can already envision streaming HD video content. No doubt there will be plenty of other services no-one's even thought of yet.
I think TW and other cable companies sitting on their hands aren't in quite as bad a situation, since they could probably rush out some kind of DOCSIS 3 product in reasonably short order.
AT&T may have more of a problem, since they're already wringing out as much as they possibly can from twisted pair. They risk getting left behind as the next AOL. -- My opinions are my own. No-one else would want them! |
