Re: USF causes this What I think they (and AT&T) should do is keep the DBS partnership and reserve that throughput for HSI instead of half-assing video and HSI. |

| Good idea, but then cable has one up on 'em for offering all three services (TV, voice, internet) over one line. Of course, I'd love to be able to get a 25 Mbps VDSL line from AT&T (though I'm not in their area so moot point) because I could care less about TV. Of course, I could have both TV and internet with no problem on FiOS as fiber can support those extreme types of speeds, but I'd rather not be capped on my internet speeds in less capacity friendly situations (xDSL) just because I *might* get TV. |

Forest, OH | Your assuming that cable reaches everyone that verizon will be able to with fttn. If cable doesn't go down a road like the one I live on and verizon will extend dsl service to my house, then they have two services and cable none. |

| True dat. Also, about the VDSL2 etc. and bonding, I didn't know that VDSL2 could get that much extra bandwidth, but I also didn't know it was that short-range. Looks like if VDSL were to be the upgrade path for my area i still wouldn't be able to get access. Houses are spaced too far apart here and I'm only about two miles out of town... |

If an area doesn't have cable, its too rural and not profitable enough for anything more than USF funded POTS. |
