Concerning ordinary folk coming up to speed... a case in point:

"Clyde Rogers, a 72-year-old Dalton resident, said he will "definitely," sign up for the fiber optics services, abandoning his satellite TV service and digital subscriber line (DSL).

"I think its great," Rogers said. "It is a natural thing for them to go into, because they already have the electronic equipment on all the gas and water lines." He praised the utility management for being "aggressive" enough to pursue the new service.

from:

"First look at fiber optic service"

The last two paragraphs are especially interesting, although not altogether surprising:

"The utility is still awaiting the commission's approval on its certification to provide local telephone service. Although BellSouth has filed to intervene in that certification, Baker said the regional phone company does so as "standard procedure" whenever a new provider applies for a certificate.

"Cope said he is confident the utility will have all its state certifications in place in time to deliver service on schedule."
