| DSL "capable" CO is ONLY part of it....
it doesn't matter if VZ WON'T deploy RT with DSLAMS. Which they will NOT DEPLOY.
Having a CO "capable" of DSL is great, but if your not within the distance limit its of little importance that your CO is now capable of DSL if it wasn't already.
I am really surprised they are spending this money any way as they want to dump WV off any way? So why waste the money.
This is why there needs to be set standards on data deployment for cable, telco and any other player that comes along fiber, nanowave whatever the future may hold. You wire it, you wire EVERYONE and YOU SERVE EVERYONE.
So this falls into the category of big whoop....The CO can handle DSL. The fact that your over the holler and around the mountain is lost on VZ. They may as well just setup their site so that when you put in 304 NPA number it says No DSL too far as thats what the majority will be getting.
Deploy DSL at the CO AND DEPLOY the HARDWARE IN THE FIELD to MAKE IT WORK ANYWHERE then YOU HAVE NEWS.
Telco's get off your butts and DEPLOY THE HARDWARE to get DSL or what ever your choice is to 100% of your customers. You will have so much $$$ money rolling in you won't know what to do. Especially in the RURAL ares where cable doesn't and won't go till .... the farm is sold and turned into some gawd awful HOA'tized development. FARMERS JUST SAY NO! --

Why should telcos do what cable won't? Or water or sewer or natural gas utilities won't? For that matter, how about cell service? Go to some "touristy" parts of WV, and there is NO signal - not EVDO, not digital, not even analog. Why? No demand? Too expensive to put up a few towers? DSLAMs cost a lot more than you think, and you can't compell them to spend money without a promise of a return on the investment. |

Simple I know how VZ works. They basically gave up on DSL in my area. Your within the length limit, fine sign up, out side the limit, sorry not available, click!
They basically gave market share away to the crapbleco in my area.
Now we want to rewire and offer Fios Fiber, which I will kill to get you bet!, but still their mode of operation for DSL. Equip CO, make alot of noise about it, the FEW in an area that qualify for it are happy, VZ makes some ROI on the $$$ before selling off WV, BUT the vast MAJORITY are still blowing in the wind with no DSL. --

| Unless you live in extremely small villages of a couple hundred people, every body "in town" in any typical small town should be within the 18,000 wire feet, right? Around here all the small towns just about have DSL (have had for quite some time) and if you're near town, you're good to go. It's only the sparsely populated farms and such in the country that can't get it. |
