Yeah, it would chap to have the benefits of "business class" service be them 
removing self-placed limitations on their service. I'd like port 25 to work, 
for example.

AT&T Fiber had gig options a year or so ago, but now I see 300 mbit options. 
I hope I didn't miss a sweet spot there.

My concerns were that I wasn't sure where they'd place their premise 
equipment, and my next door neighbor had a fiber outage (fiber laying on the 
road where a branch knocked it over) and it took them 4 days to fix it.

I wish I could get local channels over the air; I could easily dump cable in 
that case.
