Re: Why bother
said by Dogfather  :they'll do the best areas first and will be apologetically late with the others. I don't get it . . . you're saying they should do the WORST (least profitible) areas first? Riiiight. |

So while there may be some economic incentives for wiring the rich areas first, they probably aren't as strong as a lot of people seem to be assuming. |

I wasn't entirely serious (or serious at all, actually) in my earlier post...
The concern is not so much that less profitable areas will get deployed later, it's whether they'll get deployed to at all. |

Yeah, I'm saying they shouldn't deploy in rich neighborhoods first and then get to the others they promise whenever they feel like getting around to it which means a week after never.
This is the same type of shit they pulled in Pennsylvania. They got their goodies first and that gave them the opportunity to just completely blow off their requirements. |

So if a business chooses to deploy their capital first where it makes the most economic sense, they're racist. Okay. NYC is planting a money tree for Verizon. Verizon, in exchange for access to this very lucrative market should have to follow some basic rules, like EVEN deployment...deployment to all different types of economic areas to insure it all gets done in a timely manner.
Otherwise Verizon is given the opportunity and incentive to break their promises just as they did as BA in Pennsylvania. |
