This whole thing was a big box of No Thanks for me. The amusing part on other forums is how people are saying people will no longer have to buy expensive hardware, but failed to take into consideration the costs associated if they don't have a data cap and have acceptable internet already.
For speeds, fiber is not and will not be available in my area for years thanks to Comcast. I pay $80 for a 70Mbps connection. I can get access to 150Mbps for $110. I have a 1TB data cap and end up with about 100GB or so left each month. If I wanted that raised, it'd be another $50. Just upgrading to the 'acceptable' level would cost me $80 extra each month, or $960 a year. That's not counting what their subscription cost is.
I'll pass and skeptically observe from a distance.
