There's enough extra fiber that tranceiver based deployment could be done on a small scale along side it.
I've run the fiber and I'm waiting for a GEPON 1gbps system to arrive any day from Versatek http://www.versatek.com/products/gepon.htm 1gbps for 32 users, or less if you want. I found this to be less expensive than a 2-fiber 100mbps dedicate tranceiver network solely on the cost of fiber splicing and ends. 1 fiber to the neighborhood means fewer splices or couplers along the path, and fewer at each end. Do a spreadsheet of the parts list you'll need, and fiber connectors will add up quick at $15-20 a pop. Splices are less, but still require considerable manpower.
