| At least Comcast will keep upping speeds, unlike Verizon Even if it's a minor marketing ploy, at least Comcast will do it.
I don't see why Verizon can't offer 100/100 for FIOS Internet only customers. Even if not that many people want it, the few that do will net them extra money and it won't clog their "pipe." Makes no sense at all. | |

Even if not that many people want it, the few that do will net them extra money and it won't clog their "pipe." Makes no sense at all. Big red doesn't want to hemorrage more money upgrading the BPONS to GPONS. Those optical network terminals can only supply up-to 75 megabits upload per subscriber, while the download can easily approach 100mbits. Second is the obvious problem.. MONEY, consumers won't pay $200+ for that kind of tier.
If Comcast wants to set a goal for 2011, make it 50/50 megabits symmetric on docsis 3 for the sweet price of $50 a month-- no usage caps (ya schmucks) standalone/unbundled & no contract. Its about time $1 per megabit hit the mass consumer market and I don't care which company does it first: at&t, verizon, comcast, time warner, cablevision, cox, etc... somebody's gotta be FIRST. | |
