Wikipedia has a detailed description of FIOS technology and how it works at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verizon_FiOS#Technology
Besides, Verizon’s FIOS and AT&T’s Lightspeed products are not the technologies promised by the phone company monopolies–they are slower than promised and cannot deliver 500 channels.
By 2006, the phone companies had collected approximately $206 billion in excess profits and tax breaks–over $2,000 per household and business. And this says nothing of the trillions of dollars lost in technological innovation and economic growth squandered as the result of the country not having this technology available. Since these incentatives are still in place, the amount collected and squandered is substantially higher today and climbing.

Bruce Kushnick, a phone company insider, has written an excellent book on this subject, available at:

You can get an excellent synopsys of the book and the scandal on the California Internet Service Providers Association (CISPA) website at:

Also, as part of this agreement, the phone companies were supposed to provide open access to their fiber networks–ask the ISPs at CISPA how this is working out.
Where my fiber at!

So, are you saying that FIOS has 500 TV channels. I wasn’t arguing that it didn’t provide any channels.

Not to mention that Verizon cuts all the copper and cable connections going into your house while installing FIOS. This makes it somewhat more difficult to return to DSL or cable when you get thoroughly pissed off at their customer-no-service and want to go back.
I read your blog in a regular manner, and I really like your way of writing
Please keep going, smile
