VERY INTERESTING observation indeed Doug! Just checked this out
again on Bell's site. It is marketed as "Fibe" without the "r". You
have a very good eye for details! Incredible!
Which perhaps confers with my doubts. What I also noticed in the
"learn more" section of their product description page is it says " New,
next generation fibre optic network ". Based on what I have seen and
what I have learned, I have no doubt that their " New, next generation
fibre optic network" is at their central offices... but not necessarily
from their CO to the DSLAM equipment on site.
Once again, if perhaps we have a Bell Engineer in here, perhaps they
could shed some first hand light on this. Thanks Doug!

I think we should all notice too that Bell calls it "Fibe" - a made up
word that makes us think of fibre, but isn't.
Kind of like when Stephen Colbert commented on DiGiorno Wyngz, and
their somewhat dubious relationship to chicken wings.
Now there's a tag line - "Bell Fibe, the Wyngz of fibre to the premises".

Doug.
