My Japanese MiL has a FTTH connection and it's shockingly fast. It makes me want to weep when I come home to good ol' Telecom NZ after using a real telecommunications service for a while.
Not only is the connection insanely fast, but her account is uncapped, and she pays much less per month than I do for my tin-cans-and-string ADSL joke.
Sure, there's the population density aspect, but even so...
