In the global race to see who can offer the fastest Internet service, an unlikely challenger has emerged: Chattanooga, Tenn.

The city-owned utility, EPB, plans to announce on Monday that by the end of this year it will offer ultra-high-speed Internet service of up to one gigabit a second. That is 200 times faster than the average broadband speed in America.

Only Hong Kong and a few other cities in the world offer such lightning-fast service, and analysts say Chattanooga will be the first in the United States to do so. ?This makes Chattanooga ? a midsized city in the South ? one of the leading cities in the world in its digital capabilities,? said Ron Littlefield, the city?s mayor.

wow, wow! This is indeed something really exciting! I wonder how they'll manage to provide the necessary bandwidth that will cover the speed....

Almost worth moving to TN. OK, maybe not....

Wow, I'll bet all 10 of the Internet users in Chattanooga are thrilled. Heck, 9 of those users can even read and the 10th one said that he "likes them purty pictures".

Ya, and it's 350 bucks a month for the service. I live 25 miles from it.

Japan (of course) has had this for about 2 years now.

HAYZEUS CHRIST!! I'll stick to my 21mbps 4G ...

We can have 1gb/s here too but I stick to my 100/100 since It's $30 and the 1g one is over $100 since It's fairly new. Overkill at the moment for me.

I'd kill each and every one of you in cold blood for that kind of speed. On my best day, I'm Downloading at 1mbps.
