see our user reviews) says they're increasing 2009 capex by about fifteen percent, in order to expand broadband into a few select markets, as well as selectively deploy DOCSIS 3.0 upgrades. According to the carrier, roughly twenty percent of their network was supposed to be DOCSIS 3.0-enabled by the end of last year. That number is supposed to jump to fifty percent by the end of this year, with the rest of the upgrades completed by 2010. Speaking on a
conference call about their earnings, Knology CEO Rodger Johnson says the upgrades will occur "on a market-by-market basis as the competition situation dictates."
