Why not the midwest.

Why does it always have to be NOVA that gets the latest and greatest in technology? I'm willing to bet that Oklahoma would also be a good testing ground, I think we deserve that much at least.

To be honest, I think it is because we are a larger market. Fairfax county is heavily populated. It is also about visibilty.

Uh, you think it might have something to do with it's proximity to D.C.???

Don't get me wrong, I love America, I wouldn't want to live anywhere else. But America often reminds of "Wackyland" in that old Porky Pig cartoon when he was looking for the Dodo. Wackyland's motto was "It can happen here."

Verizon is also aggressively rolling out FIOS here in NoVA; and Cox doesn't want to be left in the dust.

Not entirely. Northern Virginia is a wealthy area with a lot of private business in addition to lots of government workers and government contractors.

So What?

If these guys are anything like Rogers....

Big Freaking Bandwidth....iddy, biddy download caps.

I'd like to see what they would do if someone actually used a 15MB connection 24/7.

Does Cox actually enfore those limits in your region? I go over my daily limit and monthly all the time, and if taking into account the other users on my network, it's way over. Have yet to hear a word about it from Cox.
