Re: mmmm.. fiber
Well, in America, I can say that the backbone providers have been complaining for years that they've overbuilt and that there is tons of capacity yet to be tapped. This overbuilding and lack of utilization has kept many providers from reaching profitability. What they need to do is pressure the last mile providers to expand and get faster speeds to the end user.
I've long said that Level3, Worldcrap (err, Worldcom) and the other backbone providers should get into the last mile market and sell capacity directly to the customer. $300/Mbps is way inflated, but its what they are having to charge because of extreme under-utilization.
