Or similar variation, but less far-fetched, they'll let Verizon build this magnificent network. Verizon will pay the high "early adopter" costs and SBC will wait for cheaper next-gen FTTH technology.
It doesn't surprise me much that SBC is holding onto copper. They dumped millions into Pronto/RT rollouts. To ditch copper altogether means the money spent on those things was money wasted. -- \\ROB - a part of the SCB local network |
