True for Verizon ADSL. There are however manufacturers of xDSL equipment
that is working to 26000 feet today, that other providers may be willing
and able to utilize. The DLC/SLC issue is a far bigger problem, because
from a cost of deployment prespective for the provider, the more of these
devices that they need to work through, the lower their rate of investment
return, in many cases. That is changing though.
