“Do others have very specific advantages that would flow from having 1-gig service in the City?”
Zero client technology typically requires reliable 1 Gbit Ethernet. This is the scenario where all apps are hosted on the cloud and display is thrown to the user that has a super cheap device. This is useful in glove box scenarios where portability is important (but also access to corporate databases), security is paramount, or where theft or damage in the user environment is a risk (e.g. public libraries, issuing equipment to students). Also, zero client setups are useful for reducing maintenance costs as everything is centralized. Marcus
