Speaking at the Wells Fargo 2014 Tech, Media & Telecom Conference, Fran Shammo, EVP and CFO of Verizon, said that the company has put in the network infrastructure to support 1 Gbps, but he does not see a market for it today. "We're now offering 500 Mbps in the home and you could take it to a Gig even though there's no application today that would ever need a Gig in the home," Shammo said.
This is exactly the same argument > There is NO need for home computers to go up to 1Ghz back in 2000 or there's No need for handphones to have Quad Cores running at 2.0Ghz back in 2010.
Just give us the Maximum 1Gbps speed, Let us deal with what applications can or can not use that speed!
