>>>At some point bandwidth will be so cheap that physical media will be pointless<<<
I'm not sure of that. I certainly don't see Comcast's prices going down. Assuming you get cable in your area. Fios? Not cheap or really widespread at this point. 4G? I live in the burbs 30 minutes from DC, and I can barely get 3G. Many will never have high speed broadband (>3M), either due to price or location.
>>>Google is putting in gigabit service to the home in Kansas City as we speak<<<
Talk about cherry picking...
Wake me when it comes to my neighborhood. I can hardly wait to see how inexpensive it will be.
