Oh..Why don't any of these companies Ever have directions to my neighborhood!
From the street in the town of Sebastopol, Calif., only one thing hints that
a house there has among the fastest residential broadband sold in America: an
extra wire off the telephone pole, notably thinner than the adjacent electric,
telephone and cable-TV wires.
That fiber-optic cable provides on block in Sonoma
County with downloads at up to one billion bits per second, or 1 Gbps. This
service from Santa Rosa, Calif.-based Sonic.net
will be available to the rest of Sebastopol and, later this year, the Sunset
District of San Francisco. It only costs $69.95
a month. And its slower 100-million-bits-per-second service (still over six
times quicker than my Verizon Fios connection) costs a mere $39.95 a
month.
