The first teaser that was out a few weeks ago. I had a feeling it was coming from a telco company. One of the telcos called me up asking who’s advert was it which led to my theory that it might be TelBru’s FTTH advert teaser. However, my theory was dismissed by a TelBru representative.
A few days later this advert came out and I questioned myself that this might be TelBru because of the colours scheme it uses and one friend of mine mentioned about the laser thingy on the design which also makes me thought of fibre optic experience. Hmmmm.. My theory might be right after all…
Ok, when this particular teaser came out, I was 99.5% confident that it was TelBru’s but I never had any assurance from the representatives of TelBru. Maybe they were in a situation that they weren’t allowed to disclose information.
Today’s advert says it all and yes, I was right all along 😀 Congratulations TelBru
It’s happening today at Times Square and you can check out how fast the speed is..
The tech guys making sure the connection is up and running for today. Today will be the official launch I heard.
I’ve seen many of the “FTTH” workers working hard to install cables and wiring.
