I'll be making the switch if my area code is lucky enough to get fiber; TWC is the absolute worst in regards to TV and customer service. My speeds are actually solid, but it's almost a no-brainer considering GF will be more affordable and with more bang for the buck.

If not, I'll go with Grande. I hear nothing but good things about them.

100mb connection is good enough for todays standards, wtf is going to fully utilize 1gb connection?

That's the kind of thinking that stifles innovation. Give people time and they will have plenty of things to utilize that kind of speed.

And it looks like Provo, UT is next...

We fly here at our office!

That's closer to what we normally get too, 100/50... we have a bunch of servers running at the office though, and that drags down the speed test.

Google Fiber IS expanding to Austin. Guess who's selling it? Time Warner Cable. How ing odd is that?

This is RR Turbo.

If I am offered 100x (or even close to that) for the price they mention, I'd jump on it.

I have the RR Wideband, $60/mo yet my Netflix still pauses in the evenings:
