Wow...512kbps?

Tell me it's not true? I would not spend a dime to deploy it. It is too little too late in the cities and towns and not cost effective in the sticks. My guess is the Powell clan is going along with it so they have an excuse to give the Bell total deregulation.
Once that happens we will see a short lived price war with the cables as the local ISP's quickly die. I mean within weeks.
Imagine how quickly the Bells could get their Monopolies back. Watch for them to start buying backbones just before it happens.
Another reason we don't want it is it might slow FTTH deployment. (Something the power companies should be all over anyway) I can get 1meg up/down via FTTH for 20 bucks within the next few months.
