[Davisgig] Comcast 2 Gbps Residential FTTH offer - Thoughts?

I'll believe it when Comcast starts work on getting the permits. Until
then, it's FUD to scare off competition.

As for pricing, I'd guess $300 if there's no competition from a municipal
offering. $75-$100 if there is.

And, of course, with Comcast's unrivaled (not in a good way) service.
