| Disappointed that I'll likely never see FIOS One thing I hate is Verizon's insistance that FIOS only be available in new developments in my city of Lancaster, CA. What is so wrong with wiring the entire city with FIOS? I'm totally blind so can't see any maps of where FIOS is available, but when I moved to East Lancaster, zip 93535, I was hopeful that I'd finally get the chance to experience FIOS. The first thing I did was check to see if it was available, and it was not. In fact, I only know 2 friends that live a block from one another that have FIOS in this valley! I don't even know where else one can be lucky enough to get FTTH service here! The DSL in my area is at best 2.5Mbps downstream, so for decently fast internet, time warner cable is my only option, and they can't even give the upload speed they claim to offer! It's real frustrating to know that next generation broad band internet services are available, if only Verizon would just wire everyone in their service areas! If I'm served by Verizon, I should be able to get FIOS, yet Verizon would rather turn down the chance to get new customers in areas that aren't quite the newest neighborhoods, at least in my case. I hope some day they'll realize that they can gain customers if they'd offer services to all their customers and not a very select few! OK I'm done ranting now. I'll go back to my slow DSL and my soso cable |
