"Maybe I am missing something about the amount of bandwidth you feel like the last mile needs in order to provide the services we are talking about." Perry- Yes. That's it. Not me in particular, but the GeoVideo folks will need. It was clear they were talking about fiber to the desktop/home. 15 multimedia streams, 30 fp/s, all TV quality, SIMULTANEOUSLY, and toss in a little HDTV too. So what's that..at least 90mb/s? Nothing HFC, DSL, or even wireless broadband can deliver to individual ears/eyeballs. Don't get me wrong. I love the vision(in this case dream) these companies bring to the table. It's just amazing how little respect they give to unblocking the biggest bottleneck of all, the Last Mile. -MikeM(From Florida)
