The AT&T Fiber 90-year-old
OK gang, there's no need to send me stories about the 90-year-old guy
in North Hollwood who got AT&T fiber after his ad in WSJ. I already
knew about it -- that's why I sent my item early today about my many
failed attempts to get it. By the way, apparently they didn't even
bring him the full service -- reportedly the downstream speed is below
400 (more like common cable) and while the upstream speed is the same
(which makes it an order of magnitude higher than most cable upstream
speeds), it's still not the more typical AT&T 1G/1G service that they
heavily promote at a relatively low price (*well* under $100/month in
most cases).
And price is the issue. Sure, for $500/mo even I could get fiber.
That would be something like an order of magnitude more than the
regular consumer price. Uh, no.
