DSL will still be too slow and the answer is FTTH.  |

Try enjoying the dropouts and the small resolution you will get from that.
It can't even support HDTV, much less a regular resolution TV stream. |

If you walked in and turned on the TV, you wouldn't know it wasn't Cable or satellite
HDTv will require ADSL2 for sure, but 6.5 mb is more than enough bandwidth for regular tv |

SBC has been trying to push fiber to homes for speeds of 25mbps. Their initial project was for 5 years but today they pressure FCC, they do not want to share the cable, and then they would deploy it in 2 or 3 years. ( »story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=s···95573503 )
I believe once our internet speed goes up to 25mpbs we will have no need for telephone lines or TV sets.
Internet will link all of the world for free, well at the mothly fee of your ISP. I think SBC is very smart on doing this, the first one to get the fiber to homes will get that monthly fee, hence will secure their share in the market. Because if TELCOs don´t look ahead they will die, just take a look at what SKYPE ( »www.skype.com plans are. Then imagine a little higher once we get WiMAX ( »www.wimaxforum.org/about ) instead of Wi-FI.
Then will just have wireless tools all over our uniforms.
The cars will have internet, the watch will have internet, it will all be linked. I predict about 5 years for this to come true, just watch and see. |

Re: ADSL2? Get Fiber to the Home so we can interact!
We need FFTH right away there is no time to spare. Not to solve our slow download speeds of 4 and 5 mb/s, not to bring new services to out house, not to give us an alternate for tv and internet, but to make everyone shut the F^k up about fiber on every forum. Man we know it would be nice, lets get over it.
