Verizon Taking FTTP Installation Orders

ooglek writes "Verizon is now qualifying and accepting installations for FTTP (Fiber To the Premises)! $39.95 for 5MB/2MB, $49.95 for 15MB/2MB, and $199.95 for 30MB/5MB. No word yet on whether Verizon will block ports (25, 80, etc) for incoming or outgoing traffic; with 2MB upload, I hope to basically run a small data center in my basement. Both phone and Internet will come through the fiber, and there is an unofficial rumor of video services as well by the end of this year. Got Fiber? My install date is November 2nd in Falls Church, VA (near DC). Several people in Keller, Texas have posted pictures and reported 14,679 kbps download and 1,794 kbps download speeds." Update: 10/26 23:52 GMT by T : That second "download" ought probably read "upload."

The spammers will be pleased

Man can you even imagine how fast those trojaned windows boxes on fiber are going to be able to throw spam at the world.? Hell I bet it will only take 10 seconds vs the normal 20 seconds for a windows machine to be exploited.

Just like Verizon.

They're offering FTTP, and they can't even run a simple query Webpage? I don't want ASP with my fiber!
