said by Vamp  :said by nasadude :we're not going to have wired 100Mbps by 2010, much less wireless. even if these speeds are offered, we're talking ATT and Verizon here - it will probably be capped and one can only access telco offered content at the full speed. What do they expect people to do with these speeds with the restrictions they will likely require? I'm not even going to speculate on price. However, since we both live in MD, they will still be lagging with Verizon's discriminative deployment. discriminative deployment is better than no deployment[what qwest areas are getting]

The problem in Maryland isnt that Verizon doesnt want to deploy the system, its that the state wants a 5% sales tax added to all the fios/dsl hubs from verizon and they screw that. Main pressure is coming from Comcast lobbyists here in Montgomery county where Comcast is king with the county. |

What do they expect people to do with these speeds with the restrictions they will likely require? I'm not even going to speculate on price. I will bet you $1000 (check back to this post in 2010) that Verizon FIOS will offer 100Megabit package at a decent price by the end of 2010.
