what business drivers are there to put more bits on the wire to the end user?
For us in Hawaii IPTV will drive that.
for the service from the provider, or from remote places (example google-tv which may or may-not exist, just an example of 'not $TELCO')
For service from the provider to the customer, but the bits will still goto the user. We also have the 'remote places' problem. For example: www.hawaiiweb.com/maui/html/sites/kaupo.html but for the most part population-wise we'll get to the folks homes and workplaces.
Right, so because $TELCO wants to make more $$ from their customer they enable slightly more BW from PE to CE, they may provision more backbone capacity, peering capacity, or they may not. They may docsis/other-method their service into a protected piece of that PE/CE pipe, they may not... But if not for the '$TELCO wants to make more $$ from their customer' status quo would be maintained on the PE/CE link, yes?
