Re: DOCSIS 3.0???
i've heard rumours that cox will be deploying d3 to the phoenix area, but only in 28/2 (maybe 2.5) speed tiers. there is no need for them to ramp up and do the 50meg plan in phoenix, so we're going to stay lacking. there is no need to push high speeds, why do it? |

Golden, CO | $140 for a 50/5 tier, what's why. If they can offer 50 Mbps speeds they don't have to do ANYTHING to their network until Qwest gets bought by someone else, and they can rake in the customers who want 5 Mbps uploads. |

Golden, CO | My post indicated "why not". Sure they'll intro some midrange tier or whatever, but why not have a $140 supertier that'll make sure all the performance junkies stay with Cox even after Qwest does line bonding? |
