Fiber network... difference is the demark

FiOS = Fiber to the demark. Basically, whatever is in your house is copper.

Cable = Fiber to the node. Basically the last xxxx' is copper.
Uverse = Fiber to the node. Bascially the last 3000' is copper.

While the 'core' network may be fiber, the last mile for everything else is not fiber. Personally, it wouldn't matter to me if they used microwave vs. fiber for parts of the network... as long as the results are what I expect. This is marketing.
