I'll once again please ask for specific examples as I continue to see the generic "it isn't in some parts of San Jose".
You want a specific example?
Friend of mine asked me to help them get better Internet connectivity a few weeks ago.
They live here:
Just off of I-280 in the heart of San Jose.
I dug and dug, and called different companies.
The only service they can get there is the 768K DSL service they already have with AT&T.
Go ahead. Try it for yourself.
See what service you can order to those condos.
Heart of Silicon Valley.
Worse connectivity than many rural areas. :(
