| DSLX hasn't budged on pricing plans such as the 3000/768 for $29.95/month, so I doubt they will make any changes here either. That said, I still think DSLX is a better value for what I use it for anyways.

It would be even better if the price for the high-end package (month-to-month) is lowered to like $40 a month. |

Err....I have a referral (friend) who signed up this past Sunday when the price was $19.95. He hasn't received his modem nor activation date yet. He wants to know if his price will be $14.95? |

This does exactly Jack for us longsuffering Verizon users. Then again, this is probably a PPPoE deal. I (Heart) my Static IPs...;)

"Just called SBC to get re-rated. It's a done deal, new 1 yr. term starting June 8 but now at 14.95 a month. Easy & Painless.
Thanks SBC"

OK I am totally confused, what is the difference in power user and minimal web user, aside from the obvious. I cant by any means call myself a minimal user, if I was I wouldn't be looking into dsl would I?
And what are static VS dynamic IPs.
I wonder if I could even set it up, what happens if I have problems as don't know what's involved in splitting and such... |

| Power users would probably want a static IP so they can host a game, ftp or webserver. Minimal users will just surf the web, download files, etc.
A static IP is a numeric number that will be assinged to you that never changes: great for VPN connections or hosting a server. Dynamic IP will change, but you won't even notice it, you'll just connect to the web and surf.
For most people, the dynamic IP is all they need. |

I'm in that battle of stay with DSL Extreme and the Almighty George for $10 extra a month or take my chances with SBC tech support from India and pay the lesser amount. Give me some input on what you all think. |

The competition for your communication $$$ is
gonna REALLY heat up over the next 12mos -> 24mos.
SBC is yet to turn on those 144 AT&T designed
video servers already in place and ready to go.
For the record, the instant that DSLx/SBC offers
a combo DSL based Internet/Television service I will
be first in line to sign up.
Take note DSLx. I pay $50/mo for Time Warner
Cable service. Of the 80+ stations I get I need
only maybe 12. If you offered TV over DSL, even
if it was not as good as my present cable service
and even if it cost more then the $50/mo I am
presently paying, I would switch in a heart beat.
I have no use for the HighDefinition junk or the
7,234,234 other dribble channels that TW tells me
I need.
