DSL is still wanted

I work for a Telco in a moderately rural area. In our area, we have FTTP, Uverse and DSL. There are many, many areas that are out of reach of DSL service...and the people there would absolutely love to be able to get DSL service.

I wonder if the Telcos have ever thought of shifting the hardware that they upgrade to Uverse out to an area that doesn't currently have any broadband service. It would be an expense to feed it with fiber and to move it, yes, but the people out there would be very loyal with their DSL because it would be the best option available to them.

ATT's CEO ran the former ATT into the ground... so much so that a Baby Bell (Southwestern Bell a.k.a. SBC) bought it. I wonder if the shareholders will figure out that he is running the current ATT into the ground as well. The future is not pure wireless... the future is fiber to the prem!
