Fiber is the Bomb

Journal Entry: Fri Feb 29, 2008, 7:50 PM
Just upgraded from 12Mbs ADSL to 100 Mbs Fiber

It's strange to experience DA with absolutely no lag and I have to say, I'm lovin' it =D

haha, sounds like you'll have it available there soon though.

It's been available here for quite some time, but was quite difficult to get and very expensive until now... it's actually cheaper then what I was paying for ADSL and the speeds are phenomenal

Haha, I had pretty much the same in Canada, and probably will again when we go back =)

Yeah... funny that here they've been promising the speed upgrade for years but we never got it. Could be the cables or something, perhaps in bigger places it's different.

In Japan it used to be quite difficult to get as well, but Providers finally figured out that fiber is not only much better connection for their customers, but because the signal doesn't degrade over distance like it does over copper (telephone) wires fiber is much cheaper to provide to customers as well so everyone is offering deals now to sign up.

I've heard the same here. But this is Italy, between -saying- something and actually -doing- something... it could take forever. Anyway as I said bigger places could get the better stuff much earlier.
