I'm not sure if Gigabit Squared has been mentioned in this thread yet or not, but certain areas of Seattle are going to receive some Google-fiber-like services fairly soon. I'm one block and 4 houses (8 houses total) away from the perimeter that's drawn out on Gigabit Squared's coverage map. I wonder what my chances are for actually getting service from them? Maybe I should walk around the neighborhood and try and get people to sign up? I would love to tell Comcast to go eat an AIDS infested sea urchin.

Coverage: http://gigabitseattle.com/areas/

Plan A: 5mb down 1mb up for 60 months for FREE; after 60mo users can choose to switch to $10 per month 10mb/10mb connection.
Plan B: 100mb/100mb for $45
Plan C: 1gb/1gb for EIGHTY DOLLARS PER MONTH.

I honestly will consider moving to get gigabit speeds for $80/mo.

No need to go apartment hunting just yet, "fairly soon" has been delayed: http://www.geekwire.com/2013/mcginn-gigabit-squared-delay/
God. Damnit. Way to crush my hopes and dreams. :smithicide:

Hopefully the bullshit about Murray being "Comcast's candidate" is just that.

I just logged into my Comcast account just to see if Seattle upped it speeds and I had this pop up for signing up for some TV package. You literally cannot make it go away or click on ANYTHING else on the screen without adding it to your cart.

Are you loving kidding me?
