Verizon FiOS rolls out 500/100 Mbps broadband,
its highest speed tier yet
The broadband speed wars continue to rage, and today, Verizon announced that
it's throwing down with its fastest tier yet. With a download speed of 500
megabits per second (and an upload speed of 100Mbps), the leap forward marks the
latest evolution of the company's fiber-optic Quantum
Internet Service, which rolled out last summer. To put those numbers into
perspective, you'll be able to download a 5GB HD movie in 1.4 minutes or upload
a 100MB file in eight seconds, assuming you're operating at full speed. Verizon
is hoping to gradually introduce its newest speed tier to all FiOS markets by
2014, with limited availability starting today. To hear what Big Red has to say
about it, check out the video after the break.
