Just got a letter in the mail that said - "Fastest fast - coming soon to Utah." It even showed the prices for all their new tiers, including the 50/10. It said to call for more information. So I did.
They knew NOTHING! He said they had no time frame on when it would be released. Why send the letter in the first place? What is the point? Why tell me to call for more information if they can't give that information to me? 
Lousy marketing. |

said by PGHammer  :said by sortofageek :"20/4" sounds like "up to 20/4," which would be the 16/2 tier with PowerBoost. There is another stickied topic about 16/2 and 12/2 tiers. The DOCSIS 3.0 tiers are 22/5 + PowerBoost and 50/10, just to keep this clear from confusion. In short, typical of BLAST (which is now Comcast's middle tier, and used to be their high end). It still is their high end tier in areas like mine, we don't have DOCSIS 3.0 yet.

UPDATE!!!!!
I called back after reading fileshackorg's comment. I spoke to a lady this time in the Ann Arbor call center. She said they received an email yesterday/very recently and it gives a list of MI cities launch dates. Some will see it as early as the 11th!
Decmber 11th 2009
Auburn Hills
Birmingham
Dearborn
Dearborn Heights
Madison Heights
Rochester Hills
December 22nd 2009
Ann Arbor
Battle Creek
Canton
Holt
New Haven
Plymouth
Yipsilanti
She didn't have any other dates but said the rest of the cities should follow sometime in January. I'm in Detroit so it looks like most will be enjoying the upgrades without me 
P.S. please excuse my double post |

said by FileShackOrg :I just called and the rep told me he couldn't confirm the date of Dec. 22 09 for Ann Arbor MI or anywhere else in michigan. Stated there is no call list and I'd just have to keep calling back to get an answer as to whether it is available or not. What callcenter did you speak with? I spoke with the Ann Arbor call center. Try calling back and asking again. It's possible that they are instructed not to tell us. |

It has a newer chipset that supports up to 8 downstream channels. The current 6120, and most current D3 modems, only support 4. |
