| Re: Wow Let's see, 26,400 to 44,000(on a good day)bps for $20 versus 300,000bps for $30, sounds like a bargain!
Compared to some dsl packages, it may not be great. But when dsl ain't anywhere to be found... Plus don't expect dsl rates to stay low for long. They are eliminating all competition except cable, and they are working on that issue. Cable just happened to be a little bit too established when they started trying to eliminate that competition. But they have deep- pockets and more greedy politicians. Whoever can end up paying the most to the politicians will be the winner. And as a utility, phone companies basically have unlimited spending ceiling! | |

| Re: Wow If you think the phone companies are greedy just wait until the power companies start getting deeper in your pocket. There are a lot of industry people who think phone was deregulated as a precursor to deregulation of power (didn't work the way they hoped). No one and I mean no one is more money hungry and monopolistic than the power companies. Heck, I would be more interested if the phone company can figure out a way to provide power. I think we should start a forum on how we can get the evil money grubbing power companies out of our houses. | |
