Re: Well....
said by DarkLogix  :Ya if I were verizon I'd say here 89.99 100/100 and watch the people sign up I doubt it. Just too high a price. Most people are fine with 20/5 speeds, and apparently with similar performance from their local cable provider, or else there would be a much higher turnover rate for homes passed. |

| If I were Verizon then
100/100 89.99
75/75 65.99
50/50 50.00 (just for the fiftys)
30/30 35.99
and I'm sure with this price plan people would be running to get it
you'd have the everyone that could get it getting it and the people that want a ton of bandwidth would pay for the 100/100 |

| They could easily offer 100Mbps for $99 just like Cablevision.
The demand just isn't there yet to make that much of a difference in real numbers. Nobody can see their numbers, but I'm guessing that a few hundred people even bother going with that kind of speed right now....even most heavy users would probably congregate around the 20Mbps and 50Mbps mark.
It is however an important marketing bragging mark, something that's countered just by meeting them at 101Mbps/$99. |

Verizon Fios does this crap
In the near future I hope they would offer all symmetric but to conserve bandwidth they will make it asymmetric..
such as 10/10, 25/25, and 75/25
This is a little better but still far from the maximum of 100mbps in both direction at 89.95 a month
50mbps at 49.99
25mbps at 29.99
some would go for 50mbps, some at 25mbps and few at 100mbps  |
