Re: speeed

That's one part.. but I suspect that AT&T's piecemeal approach is killing them. Their deployment is not consistent in availability or product.

Eg. I want triple play.

TWC offers TV (analog/digital) + VoIP + HSI - simple, and reasonable pricing

AT&T offers
- Uverse TV + HSI + POTS (expensive) in many areas
- Uverse TV + HSI + Uverse voice in few areas (better pricing)
- Dish or DirecTV + ADSL + POTS in some areas, depending on how far you are from the CO

While AT&T's Uverse TV and Internet may be appealing, I want a decent phone service as well. POTS is ~$60, and AT&T doesn't offer VoIP in the Los Angeles area (~17 million people here... HELLO!).

Also, if I didn't want TV service, I could easily order JUST VoIP + HSI for $70/month. AT&T ADSL 3Mbps + POTS is over $84/month alone. Uverse Internet only starts at $55/month... and I'd have to go Vonage (again no VoIP service here).

Nothing against AT&T themselves... they just don't have a nice / easy system to obtain what I want.
