<blockquote id="quote"><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica" id="quote">quote:<hr height="1" noshade id="quote">Verizon customers in Keller, Texas, soon will be the first to receive groundbreaking high-speed Internet services over Verizon's fiber-to-the-premises (FTTP) network. The company is raising the bar on consumer broadband today by introducing data speeds of up to 30 megabits-per-second (Mbps) in Keller later this summer and in other markets later this year. Prices start at $34.95 per month.<hr height="1" noshade id="quote"></blockquote id="quote"></font id="quote">
Maximum connection speeds and pricing for Fios consumer services are:
* 5 Mbps/2 Mbps for $34.95 a month as part of a calling package, or $39.95 a month stand-alone
* 15 Mbps/2 Mbps for $44.95 a month as part of a calling package, or $49.95 a month stand-alone
* 30 Mbps/5 Mbps at pricing to be announced later
<blockquote id="quote"><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica" id="quote">quote:<hr height="1" noshade id="quote">Verizon also has begun building its FTTP network in parts of California, Florida and Texas:
* In California, Verizon plans to pass about 100,000 homes and businesses with FTTP technology in the Huntington Beach area and in other parts of Southern California.
* In Florida, Verizon plans to pass about 100,000 homes and businesses with FTTP technology in the Tampa area and parts of Hillsborough County.
* In Texas, Verizon plans to pass 100,000 homes in part of the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, including Keller, which was announced by the company in May.<hr height="1" noshade id="quote"></blockquote id="quote"></font id="quote">
Cool beans. Fiber to the home is here. I guess over the next 2-3 years this will expand significantly.
