| I would have been very surprised to see the words "unlimited" on that page (considering the 15/30 rates did not mention caps at all) if not for all the contradictions in the terms of service. I haven't had time to write what's going to be a fairly long post about that, but yeah, the tagline is "BA can do whatever they damn well feel like". |

There are caps, but 15/15 and 30/30 are unlimited.
Also, 15/15 is now 20/15 and 30/30 is now 50/30 in Atl Canada.

For those Sudburians, I saw 2 Bell FibreOp trucks (They were labelled as Fibreop, I don't know if they're specific to the project or just the new truck branding for Sudbury) on Attlee avenue so I figure its starting to roll out...
I'd be happy with 30/30....just waiting patiently. |
|
| The only way they'd get me is with 30/30 unlimited bundled with phone and features for 69.95/mth on a 3yr contract and must be written in contract that no caps would be imposed during that 3 yr period. |

They don't seem to have gotten very far:
My friends off Lasalle (west) had an installation appointment for August 1st... The two FibreOP trucks showed up, the guys spent a few minutes searching nearby poles, apologized and added them to their growing "it's not here yet" list. |

We can all thank Sudbury hydro and city hall for the delays. Unlike anything ever seen out east. Greater Sudbury open for business? I think not. |

| No surprise here. |

Devil's advocate: Two weeks for that is a long time, but why weren't necessary permits obtained before starting construction? |

Weird, bcause where that line seems to go, is the train tracks...though now that I think about it, some communications companies use the railroad right-of-way to have cabling around cities and whatnot...
Sort of difficult to see from the picture, but there is a CN line that runs near that Futureshop on Barrydowne just a bit north(south?) of Lasalle lol... |

So what happened to the map on fibreop? It used to show the progress in Sudbury now its all gone.
Is Sudbury Hydro winning at killing this project?. Somehow I can see this happening as Bell/Aliant will finally get pissed off enough to say fuck it. There are plenty of other places that would be happy to have fibre installed. |
