I don’t remember why I was thinking about improved broadband today. Maybe I was thinking about downloading more Teen Titans. Anyway, I started looking into Verizon’s Fios service some more, and I found a site that has more Fios installation information.

After looking at the pictures on that site, it’s pretty clear that what’s been going on in my neighborhood over the past month or two is a Fios install. Basically, they’re running fiber all over the place.

I actually stopped today to ask one of the installers what was going on; if this was indeed Fios. He didn’t seem to know what “Fios” was, but he did say it was FTTP - Fiber To The Premesis. He didn’t know when it all be up and available, but I’ve been reading online that it could be as soon as November.

I’m going to be very excited to have 10-15MBps download capability. Oh, yes. More Teen Titans downloading for me for sure. I’m going to need some hard drives…
