It’s a cool setup, but it’s a lot more fun installing the fiber myself and 
owning everything.  :)  Maybe it is time for you to get back in the game Travis!

Hi,

Here is the new fiber network that has been developed over the last 6 years in 
a suburb of Idaho Falls. A quick breakdown:

Fiber install = $3,000 to the homeowner, or financed at $15/month as a bond 
against the property for 20 years.
Fiber transport for 100Mbps = $25/month to the city ISP service ranges from 
$40-$109/month depending on which provider you pick and which speed.

So, right now 100Mbps x 100Mbps total cost is around $149/month with $0 install.

The other thing is the customer can switch providers "on the fly" from a 
webpage.
