Century Link is providing 1Gb/s service along SE26th Ave and between SE Belmont 
and SE Hawthorne streets.  Cost is $70/mo plus taxes, etc.  Service is Fiber to 
the house and not fiber to the node.

Comcast isn't worried enough to extend their promotional pricing to me.  I
just got off the phone with them and canceled service.  They want $80/mo for
what I was paying $30 for the last six months.  I wouldn't pay more than $30
for their service and their 20mbit/s service RARELY provided that speed
except to sites that were cached by them.  Here is the last speed test I
did: http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/4020600221

Best part?  They appear to be throttling connections to centurylink.com as
their pages won't even load correctly.

Century Link is supposed to be bringing me 1gbit/s service in a week or two
for $79/mo.
