Re: See all the conditions for approval in Appendix C I'm surprised nobody has done anything with Vegas...don't you guys have Clear wireless broadband now? Don't tell me it's lame; 6 Mbit down and 512k up is better than 1.5/512 on Embarq.
As for U-Verse, cable companies don't need to upgrade to even DOCSIS 2.0 to deal with them. A decent cable system (860MHz or so of bandwidth) on DOCSIS 1.1 has successfully allowed for 15/2 and even 20/1.5 internet service, which meet or beat U-Verse. Kick in some PowerBoost and U-Verse is vanquished.
The only thing that competes with DOCSIS 3 on speed is fiber at this point. VDSL2 might be an option, but nobody's deploying it. |

| U-verse experince is better than Cox in Vegas on the TV side. Embarq is a joke around here. Cox owns the market for sure. Clearwire wouldn't work for a home with that lovely 5GB cap they have! Man, Vegas needs more options! Fios here would be wonderful! |

Here's to hoping CenturyLink realizes it bit off more than it can chew and sells this market off to a real teclo.

Uh, ClearWire doesn't have caps on their new WiMAX service. |
