Sorry to disagree, but why spend billions of dollars getting high speed 
broadband up to people's homes, if you can't then get it the last few 
metres inside, for them to actually be able to use?

The debate has been about if the fibre should be terminated in the 
street (FTTN), or run an extra tens of metres to the home (FTTP). The 
last few few metres within the home has been ignored in this discussion. 
If householders can't or wont cable this last bit at high speed, then 
perhaps we have been debating the wrong issue.
