it would be nice to get some real competition to force these companies to open up some bandwidth. Around here we got Optimum and FiOS competing. Optimum has tried every trick in the book to try and get me to switch from FiOS to Optimum, including telling me that FiOS is an electrical hazard. They even sent a pretty Eastern European girl to my door to seduce me into changing from FiOS to Optimum. FiOS wants to entice me into going for their Triple Play package, TV, Phone and Internet speeds of 15 down/5 up. What ?? I am already getting 20 down, why would I want to decrease my bandwidth ? And cmon folks, this is supposed to be fibre optics, you should be providing much more bandwidth to begin with.
