Fiber coming to King's Valley ?????

I've been noticing the cable work happening down at teh Kum and Go. This morning I see a cable trailer up the hill with a spool of digital optical cable.

Was there an 18 wheeler parked next to it full of oatmeal and bran muffins? tongue:

But seriously folks, I'm all for improving the infrastructure along the 285 corridor but will a fiber back bone do very much to solve the "last mile" problem? Most folks still have the old POTS copper running into their homes and four strand control wire or CAT 3 in their houses. At best we may be able to look forward to more DSL in limited areas. Until we can have fiber run into our homes and run either Gig-E copper or fiber in to ours homes ~7.something-ish DSL (potentially degraded even more due to the condition of the lines serving your home and your internal wiring) is as much as those close to the fiber backbone can realistically expect.
