Re: Time Warner's Response?

I want to see what TWC will do in response before making my decision. When I had TWC install my triple play in my current residence it cost me over $450 and took them a good 4-6 hours to do the install (new behind the wall cable runs). I don't want to go though that kind of trouble again only to find that a week after switching to U-verse, TWC offers 20/2 or something similar.

I still doubt that TW will increase speeds into the realm that I would hope to see them offer. They have always historically not only matched but exceeded offers from AT&T/Bellsouth on the download side, and usually match the upstream. I'd love to see them offer 10/1 or 20/2, or something along those lines... They seem to offer similar speeds in other area's across the country, so why not here? Do we just not deserve it or something?

Embarq offers 10/896 in their territory (here) and that never seemed to bother them.

True, but U-verse poses more of a threat to TWC, as they offer triple play over their incumbent network.
