re: eliminating 90% of CO's, sounds ambitious. Their network must be a whole lot of short loop lengths (or an exaggerated number).

For Verizon's FiOS:

The average number of households over all Verizon
wire centers is 7,250. The corresponding number for
FiOS enabled households is 17,000. To put this in
perspective, 68 % of all Verizon wire centers serve
less than 5,000 households. However, to this point,
81 % of FiOS enabled wire centers serve over 10,000
households, while only 6 % serve less than 5,000
households. Thus, there is clearly a focus on larger
wire centers. Within FiOS households, approximately
68 % of all households could receive FiOS service.

(snipped from a paper titled "Forecasting the Spatial Deployment of FiOS"
available at telenor.com )

Quite an interesting paper if you get a chance to read it.
