ADSL might be the cheapest path to take, but will likely have a very short to non-existent competitive lifespan. Unlike FIOS, or even cable (apparently) which are scalable, giving them a longer return on investment.

I guess it won't really matter in the many areas where these incumbents have no real competition, but they are going to get slaughtered like a third stringer wherever they have forward thinking competition (FIOS, Cable, municipal fiber, etc).
