If they could provide me with 128kbit symmetrical service with this, I'd be pleased. Living in the boonies, my satellite service is the only "broadband" available. I'd love to have something I could game on, even if speeds weren't amazing.

Perhaps not soon, but it'll make its way. I see no need for it in the city--they all have DSL, cable, or wireless available. Even here, the cable from one city ends about 2 miles...both ways... from my house.

Will you stop it?

Anyway, you are right, BPL is heavily dependant on infrastructure and will not be deployed to anywhere but areas with sufficient density. Rural people will never see this unless they put in a fiber backhaul to a central point and even then, only within a small area.

I don't see a need for it in city areas either. I mean, c'mon. They have DSL, cable, wireless (as you mentioned), and even some have fiber...
