| Compete Qwest! And win us !
Honestly, if they REALLY want to take off, then they should make a B-Line and go directly for existing Comcast customers. How? The answer is simple, Fiber us Qwest, and Fiber us as much as you can. Us locals are DYING for FIOS speeds, and none is offered here, (sans parts of Lone Tree which is choked) You make that investment and you can officially watch your customer base fly upwards. I for one would jump, fast as hell, if I got a flyer saying Fiber 20/5 available at $49.99 a month at my house!

Re: Compete Qwest! And win us !
I seriously doubt Qwest, especially after a nation wide fiber deployment, could or would sell you 20/5 for anything near $49.99 a month.
Right now, Comcast is enjoying squashing Qwest day after day.. and, too easily Comcast can pound Qwest into the ground if they tried to one up them too much too fast.

| I have Charter HSI, but I would drop it in a second if I could get DSL from Qwest. Unfortunately I live in Sprint territory surrounded by Qwest.
I would consider getting DSL from Sprint, but they charge more than Qwest, and force you to get phone service too so forget that. |

Comcast can't compete with verizon Fios or Utopia, how could they compete with Qwest if they decided to do it?? You would see a complete exit left of Comcast customers in Denver to Qwest if Qwest actually decided to do this. Who doesn't want the speeds and prices? Fios pricing is:
15/15 $64.99
15/2 $49.99
There is just no way Comcast could compete with that...15 SYMETRICAL!!!!! at $66- ?? Heck, that is almost the cost of a downgraded service when you don't have a bundle as it is!

| If it is any consolation, I work for the contracting company that holds the Colorado Qwest contract and we are working on a large scale FTTN effort in Denver (surrounding areas) and Colo Sprgs. They have dedicated huge quantities of materials to this project and I think you will see some monster leaps in line quality and product availability in the near future at least in these markets. If you had any idea of the TRUE cost to make this project go you would simply fall over backwards. |
