While Verizon is out sharply trying to sell the country on theirFiOS fibre optic entanglement connection packages , which straddle from $ 40 per month for 5Mbps to 30Mbps for $ 180 ( extra for goggle box and headphone service ! ) , Hong Kong residents can now savour their own fibre optic connections from Hong Kong Broadband connection Limited … which happen to be a fraction of the Mary Leontyne Price and many times faster than what we can get here . Yes , HK occupant can now get a whopping 100Mbps fiber optic connexion for a mere $ 48.50 a month . And that ’s the entry - story package .
How about 200Mbps for $ 88.20 ? Yeah , not quite enough , I agree . You might as well leap up to 1Gbps for $ 215.40 a month . But hey , you do n’t really need that , do you ? You should be give thanks Verizon for the opportunity to pay them for a pathetic 5Mbps connexion . I mean , the US is so far down on theper - country broadband speed chart(the Japanese are savor 60Mbps average ) that we should just be bed any crumb the telecoms are unforced to toss our way , correct ? Thanks again , Verizon ! [ CNNMoneyviaBroadband news report ]
