This is very interesting news. The three top baby bells are laying the same fiber. A joint effort. What is more interesting is the fact that the phone companies want to serve cable along side voice. And, drive down costs while their at it.

On Thursday, the three telephone companies announced they have agreed to use the same types of fiber-optic hardware and software in the expansion of their networks. The carriers plan to use these higher-speed connections to homes and offices to sell new services, including cable television.
