Re: *raises hand timidly*

You appear to be confusing NTIA and RUS's $7.2B broadband stimulus program, with the FCC's mandated National Broadband Plan. $164 per unserved household is the (actually incorrect) figure from a PR consulting firm.

But the FCC's NBP has nothing to do with that. They were given the task of doing something about this country's lack of a world class network, at fair prices, in addition to the lack of universal service and adoption.

Okay, so the $164 figure is wrong? That's cool.

But still, which would you rather have? T-Mobile's HSPA 7.2 network or Verizon's (slower) EvDO network, all else equal? I'd take the EvDO any day (again, all else equal) because the coverage is so much greater than T-Mobile's, though all else isn't equal...
