"
learned about FiOS, or Fiber to the Premises (FTTP), almost a year ago. It's not a new technology. Fiber-optic cable has been around for decades, but it's only in the last year or so that Verizon created the FiOS program and began running fiber to consumers' doorsteps. Fiber offers speeds that beat cable and make DSL look like dialup. It's the next big thing in broadband."
