AT&T reps were surprised to hear FTTH was available and when they looked they didn't have customers in that area that their line got hit.

My mission this week (this month?) is to put together a presentation to talk with local banks with to fund our fiber dreams. Those of you who have built and have statistics available - could you answer these two questions please? What is your take rate? (30%? 50%? 80%?) Are you building in areas other providers are available? (cable, DSL?) Thank you for your time. I look forward to all 100+ responses ;) </blockquote> </blockquote>
