Yea true the TV thing may not work, but I just trying to put across that John Keys plan might be thinking more then just interent, or he is not and just trying to win votes with words about faster internet. Who truely know heh.
Because personally I think FTTH is future, with satellite being a backup to rural customers. I say this is becuase it is hard to travel faster then light, and since there is a fix connection to the house you are going to get a very good service. And with satellite being a backup due to latency.
Tho I think what the 1.5bil should be spent on is either helping out with international connectivity, and a better backhaul with cabinetism. Then with more houses being closer to cabinets it will help speed and max out those existing copper wires. Its about making the most of the existing technology while upgrading around it. Then in the future worry about the FTTH when the government makes the return on the first 1.5bil.
