Where are AT&T Uverse and Verizon FIOS? When are They Coming?

You want the ultra high speed of AT&T Uverse and Verizon FIOS, and check their availability.  After all, both carriers service your area.  So it surprises you to find that the latest in high speed connections and digital television is not available to you.  It might be available to your next door neighbor, or in the next zip code, but not by you.  Nuts!  What gives here?

These major companies have sunk a great deal of money into developing these networks, enabling users to bypass cable and DSL options.  It’s working.   In a nutshell, the networks are not fully developed yet. AT&T plans to offer Uverse to more than 30 million residential customers in the 22 states it serves by the end of 2010.  However, their schedule has taken some hits, and that may no longer be possible.  Verizon FIOS currently has 2.2 million subscribers.  They are adding approximately the same number of customers as Uverse every year. These services offer crystal clear phone sound, the highest broadband speed possible, and quality digital television.  You’ll know when they come to your area because the signs will go up in their phone stores.  Keep watching…and asking…
