Kansas City MO.  Go Chiefs!

Another user from the KC area!  Nice!

I live outside the area with Fiber, but it is supposed to expand to my city.  I expect it will be a few years before it gets here.

Indeed!

To be completely honest, it's mostly superfluous right now.  The internet as a whole just ain't ready for this, so server upload speeds don't give you anything close to 800 mbps.  But I'm gonna try to upload some larger files to Skydrive today and see how fast it happens.  I'm also eager to try video chat.  

Most of all, THIS has made me want an Xbox One more than anything else now.  Still gonna wait (bigger priorities right now), but an online world is suddenly a reality for me and I want to LIVE in it!

Right, after a certain very low point compared to that monster speed, most services are going to bottleneck you from their end. Peer-to-Peer stuff (if your peer is running Fiber too...) and really high-load things will see the most benefit

That's true, but I can't wait to get it anyway.  It is such a great deal compared to what other companies offer around here.  Once my current deal runs out, I will be paying just a little less for a tiny fraction of the speed.
