>To broaden the question a bit: What's likely to be the next location or locations for Google Fiber?
It'll probably be somewhere without decent options right now, which rules out anywhere Verizon operates FiOS. I would guess that it will show up in a low-regulation stat, which rules out most of the West Coast and Northeast. Somewhere like Seattle is plausible, but the city is teaming up with a company to offer Gigabit Seattle.
Some of the more plausible options might be Phoenix, AZ, Denver or Boulder, CO, a city in one of the Carolinas (Raleigh / Durham?), Oklahoma City, Minneapolis / St. Paul, or Madison, Wisconsin (some may already have FiOS).
