You know you have a subscriber that is going to get one, and do a speed
test.
Then you will get a call that he's "only" getting 3Mbps through his
4,600 Mbps router. Of course, he's only got 3 Mbps service, but what
difference would that make?

And notice it only has gigabit ports. Shouldn�t it have at least one
SFP+ port for 10 gig wired? Maybe this is for the person who has
their own media server in their house (but hates wires). It had
better be in the same room with the router, since 60 GHz is not going
to penetrate walls very wall.
Perhaps people are going to have gaming and multimedia PCs that stream
the raw video over the home wireless network to their tablet or some
sort of thin client. Kind of along the lines of the wireless TV
receivers you get with satellite and cable now, or an extension of the
Chromecast concept.

Very funny!
Interesting statement:
There�s quite a few technical reasons as to why the jump to
60GHz is a good thing, but the most important for the average
consumer is speed. The 5GHz band maxes out at 1,733Mbps, but the
new 60GHz band can achieve wireless transfer speeds of up to
4,600Mbps. So streaming 4K video without a network cable? Not a
problem.
Oh right. Like all of us have 4.6 Gbps to the home... or even 1.7 Gbps...
