What in God's name are you complaining about?
This is the first website on the Internet to report Verizon customers are getting higher DSL speeds this week, and you're whining about them (and the users) breaking a story?
Verizon gets slammed (and rightly so) because they over-emphasize fiber deployments for regulatory effect. |

While I agree with the first part of your post, I disagree with the latter. It isn't the end of 2004 yet. How do you know Verizon won't reach 4,000,000 people? You should really go read up on the deployment. Verizon has installed fiber lines in many different areas, it's just waiting to be turned on.

| Forget this upgrade, wait until FIOS comes to NYC. Fiber Optic terminations in your apartment/house. Bringing dialtone, broadband and digital TV. The DL speeds on Fios are 5.o, 10.0 and even T1 speeds for under $60 a MONTH!!!!
This is in place across various parts of the country and is about to be deployed in NYC.
In case I sound like a salesman, yes, I work for them. Regardless, we are working up the legal specs now for risers etc in NY and when it comes in, it will be HUGE. |
