I was just telling people (last weekend at our Halloween party) that I saw no reason to switch my internet service to Verizon's FIOS - and then this story comes along:
Some residents of New York, Connecticut, and New Jersey who live inside the boundaries of Verizon's FiOS network will be the first to be able to take advantage of Verizon's new 20/20 FiOS service. As the name implies, 20/20 FiOS is a symmetrical 20Mbps connection (same speed in both directions), and it's one of the first symmetrical services to target the consumer market.
If they extend that to my area, I have a reason to switch. All I can say is, wow.
