Well there is a town a few miles from here that is getting FIOS right now, I believe it's 30/30 symetrical, so it's not a total bust, yet. |

Lavaca, AR has FTTH (they're not getting it, but got it - I believe deployment is finished), but unfortunately not 30/30 speeds. Right now their highest speeds offered are 5/2, still not up to cable as far as download, but upload is nothing to sneeze at! The link below shows their phone/Internet bundle prices, which I think are not too bad. Especially when we don't even have U-verse offered here (AT&T area surrounding Lavaca). Lavaca has only about 2000 residents, but is rapidly growing.

I asked them about possible video offerings, and they are looking at that possibility down the road, but Cox already has service in that area, so I don't think that they are in any hurry to butt heads with Cox yet.
The ILEC is an independent mom & pop phone company called Pinnacle Commmunications. The owners are nice folks and very forward thinking as far as technology and staying current goes...  |
