Re: Syracuse? Having lived in Syracuse for a few years, I can tell you that I was not aware of any significant portion of the city (proper) that couldnt get TWC, even as far back as 1997. I grew up in the area. I know Time Warner Cable does a good job getting services throughout the cities proper and many rural areas because of franchise obligations, but I also know many others only have a choice of one provider -- if anything at all.
But the argument isn't that they can't get first-gen broadband (and many rural areas still can't), but that they won't be seeing the next-gen upgrades Hansell seems to think are right around the corner. Highly unlikely that Binghamton will ever see FiOS. Neither city is going to be an immediate DOC 3.0 upgrade priority, either.
But Hansell tells us gigabit connections are right around the corner. In cities like that? Maybe by 2020. |
