We are just as excited as the next person about Google Fiber's launch in Kansas City. And we're even more excited that Google has announced that the launch will happen on Thursday. But is the launch really happening, or should we just expect another ambiguous announcement from the search engine giant?
According to The Kansas City Star, Google plans to fill in some blanks on July 26th. The video (above), which was released last Wednesday, unveils what might be part of the marketing rhetoric for its coming service: 100 times faster Internet, 100 times the possibilities.
The video also proclaims that the service "arrives on July 26th." Will it really? According to The Star and Google spokeswoman Jenna Wandres, "We haven't elaborated on what arriving means."
So what can we expect on Thursday? If Google has anything to do with it, we will have to simply wait to find out.

Has Google already laid the underlying infrastructure for this whole project beforehand? I'm pretty sure you can't just flip a switch and say "yep, Fiber's turned on". And another question, when will the rest of America see this?
