Verizon's introduction definitely will prop up the economy, I feel and with 3G Wireless in the roads for a long time, itis time we introduce some products and become guinea pigs of the new gadgets and use them and improve them. Its highly unrealistic to have high expectations of a very new technology when things will take tens of years to mature. Take the case of the old telephone. We have telephones for past 125 years
and we still introduce new features to them. So the case of the point is there will be bugs and yes there will be flames, but we have to adopt and try out new stuffs fast.
I think it will be well received...

Broadband/DSL/Cable modem are brand new - 3-4 years young only. We have a long way to go before we can judge whether these technologies are doing well or not. By subscribing to these tech we are setting a trend. Car, telephone,TV are 70 + years old and www internet is 10 years and email is 30 year old only.
So let us all hang in there, subscribe to DSL, Cable modems, keep using FreeBSD, Linux and keep going.
