hmm FIOS? Wi-Fi?

Cable and DSL don't make up all of the "Broadband Internet" how about WiFi Internet? or what about fios so the 44% DSL and 56% Cable for the 100% share of "Broadband Internet" don't add up.

very good point... Broadband cellular exists too.
I suspect this should have been posted as 'wired' home broadband internet.

FiOS doesn't come close to the # of DSL and # of Cable providers. Either does Sat or wifi. So just looking at the DSL and Cable stand point, 44% are DSL and 56% are Cable.

There's about a half-million Fios customers, and many Wi-Fi connections are run on either cable or DSL...we're talking residential here...the percentage of the pie taken up by other technologies is pretty minuscule....

We've seen quite a few news items about DSL beating cable. If/when FIOS starts to beat both of them, then maybe we'll have something interesting.

First off, I'd like to say FIOS, does not represent all fiber to the home projects, yet people seem to think it does.

Second, I don't think these numbers really mean much at all. How many people can get both cable or dsl. Those are the numbers that might be interesting.

I for one, can get both, and I'd much rather have cable. It is faster in my area, and as for price, who the hell cares.
