1 edit | Fine and Dandy... ... but I'm still going to stick with Qwest DSL for now. I highly doubt that they will offer 7Mbps for $35/month... Plus the latency will be an issue as I am a gamer.... But, for those out in the sticks that can't get anything other than satellite this is a good option if they do it right!
They are also going to have a hard time convincing people with cable that are getting 10+mbps to switch to a lower service for about the same price (if they price it ~$40-$60/month).
Personally I think they should target areas that don't have any broadband options (other than satellite). | |

| Re: Fine and Dandy... I second that. I've had both Dish and DirecTV and prefer either to cable. However, I want broadband and bundled discounts offered by cable made me get rid of the dish.
If DirecTV and/or Dish can offer a WiMax solution with a bundled TV/VOD/DVR/broadband package, I'd love to have a competitive option.
Of course it's not enough to offer 1Mbps. I'd expect several Mbps service, reasonable price, no port blocking or GB/month caps etc, etc, etc. | |

West Boylston, MA | Most likely this wouldn't be available in the sticks either or it maybe a long time. | |
