FYI, FiOS is fiber to the side of your home, It will be all three services, and no bandwidth sharing. A 5mb connection on FiOS will get you 5megs....
I run a 15 meg service from COX and pull 4.73megs on our own test site. (
www.test.lvcm.com) "which is down today...go figure)
FiOS will be in the 757 soon....I am anxious.
COX will also be offering a FIber service soon.
People i know at work have who FiOS already (they are in the trashmore area) it's about 100 a month for all 3 services; phone, 15mb download speed and alot of channels + HBO and HD channels.
Im not a 'lesser idiot' I now what bandwith sharing is... 1 connection split up with like 100 people(atleast for me in an apartment anyways) so when everyone jumps online, you get laggie speeds. I cant use Xlive at nights around 7pm cause i lag off too much...pisses me off ;(
Fiber > Copper but this post is about who here has access to getting it not who is better....goto the Off Topic post for that battle. ;P
