Dude that's availability not a killer ap. FYI, I use T1 at work and have DSL at the house (yes, a WSTL box), but the point is that most people have no use for the speed, nor do they want to pay for it and MOST of all, they do not have the patience to deal with hooking it up. Funny thing is, even if there was a killer app that made the rollout go even faster, WSTL would loose money even faster. REPEAT, REPEAT, their gross and net margins suck! It ain't gonna get any better either as the bigger players can manufacture to an open standard and take the manufacturing yield up the curve.

WSTL's gross marigns are LESS than that of crude oil and that's the world's biggest commodity. Think about it.
