Re: Seriously, though....
First: It's not my site, and Project Pronto was scrapped toward the end due to regulatory concerns. Learn to use Google. By the way, DSL is not fiber.
Second: You speak like an SBC employee. Signing a contract, and providing 18 million people with functional triple-play fiber/ADSL2+ is world's apart, captain telco.
Third: SBC, like all bells, so inflates phone bills with garbage fees and bogus "regulatory recovery" fees they should be taken behind the barn and beaten with a stick. The "Poor bell" song doesn't play here, sorry, captain telco. |

First – SBC did deploy project PRONTO in most states that had a cost/ROI that made
Sense for them to do so, it was not scrapped – where do you get off spreading misinformation on your site?. On what network do you think SBC’s current 4 million DSL customers Are riding on? There are thousands of RT’s deployed in SBC territory.
Second – SBC is putting its money where its mouth is – it awarded the 1.2 billion fiber contract this week to Alcatel. Do you understand what the words “awarded contract” mean?
Third – all of your no incentive comments are typical *($&#$ from the folks that run this site. How many billions have YOU spent to bring broadband to the US? That’s right - ZERO. SBC has a duty to its stockholders and its 160,000 employees to wait until the climate is right for their investment – period |
