1 edit		Not everyone will be getting FTTH.

From the article,
quote:
SBC said its planned network would consist of fiber connections directly to newly built homes or businesses as well as "fiber to the neighborhood," where copper wires are used for the last several hundred feet but still deliver enough network speeds for video service.
So it looks as if they are only going to put FTTH in the brand new areas just going up now, and just placing more RDSLAMs in already populated areas and maybe bumping the speeds up for them a little bit more, but probably not much.
