Google ponders playing the ISP card?

http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2010/02/think-big-with-gig-our-experimental.html

Google's stock pile of dark fiber (maybe not so dark any more) has been used to communicate between it's data centers across the world for sometime now. I have always hoped they would consider turning this high speed private network into the backbone of an ISP that could be managed by Google. This would hopefully apply significant pressure to US based ISPs who are seemingly un-motivated to improve their own aging networks. Looks like that day might be on the horizon.
