It appears to take $1400-$4500 to deploy fiber to the home in urban and suburban areas, depending on all the fun local factors that effect costs.*sigh* I'd gladly pay $5000 NRC to get fiber to my house. I only wish it were that simple. :( Heck, if they wanted longer-term ROI, I'd pay $5000 NRC and $200 MRC for a fiber connection to my house, if only there were someone who could provide it. I suspect the real costs are much higher, and that's why there's nobody willing to do it for that cheap.
No, Matt; in a sufficiently dense deployment, it appears you can actually get it done for that money, based on actual deployment results. If my project pans out, I'll give it to you for less than that. :-) Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.
