Not far from their prices - miles from their product. You're comparing 110Mbps for $100/month against 1000Mbps* for $70/month and saying they're near equal.

That doesn't make sense to me.

*I'm judging from a speed test posted on the blog post that the line is asymmetric and down and upstream add up to 1Gbps.

The speedtest result posted in the blog post is really bad. 91.58 Mbps down and 35.01 Mbps up add up to "127 Mbps" in terms of your comparison. Of course, Google Fiber is much faster than that.

For the record, I'm currently paying $30/month (normal price $62/month) for 25/2 DSL in Vancouver, BC. If you live in a wired-up building, you can get 25/10 for $38/month, 50/10 for $62, 100/10 for $83, and 300/15 for $113 from a boutique ISP.

I know Google mentions a "gigabit internet" but in the article they measured "91.58 Mbps down and 35.01 Mbps up".

Comcast, near where I live (in MB/s, all prices are in addtion to a $7/mo modem rental )

3/.768 - $40/mo

20/4 - $30/mo 6 month promotional (incl. cable box rental), $42-62 afterwards (varies)

30/6 - $73/mo

50/10 - $119/mo

105/20 - $199/mo

Comcast seriously needs competition, and I unfortunately don't live in an sonic.net area.

I can't wait for Google to disrupt the hell out of this situation.

Comcast advertises their speeds in Mb/s

Except Google is 1000Mbps down and 1000Mbps up :)
