|  Comcast is a little nervous!
Like I previously said, Comcast is quick to offer you "discounts" without even asking. I got a one-year reduction on my cable internet without asking in addition to cable television.
U-Verse is scheduled to begin deploying in my area either in the last quarter of this year or the first quarter in the next year.
Comcast got their ass handed to them in the Boston area by Verizon FIOS. How do I know this??? The Comcast tech that installed my Digital Voice transferred from the Boston area because Verizon took so many customers from them, his only option was to transfer or lose his job.

Considering Comcrap is scared of Knology, one of the worst ever, not shocked. I wonder if all those IFITL customers will get upgraded? AT&T calls me daily to get me to move back from Cox to them. I just use their $400 cashback offer to get a Cox discount. Why would I give up 30/4.6 (till they fix it to 1 down) service for 6/768?

I wouldn't switch anyways, last I heard, to get U-Verse Internet you have to get TV too. |

Good point, at least until they start implementing hard caps that you surpass month after month. Cox told me no caps here. They have "soft" caps but are looking for massive Bittorrent users. Cox said, "We don't enforce caps except on users that do like 1 TB of transfer a month; if you 'average' 100 gigs a month, we don't care--some of use techs and managers (he was the GM) use 300-500 gigs a month. Plus, we don't want to lose triple play customers like you to cellphones and other providers." If you have triple play, I doubt they'll ever touch you; they don't want to lose all the business. Something the other providers should figure out. Caps enforced equals dumping all their service not just the one! Knology doesn't have caps either.
