|  Great service here in Phoenix
I got the whole package. Digital Telephone ($20 cheaper the QWest and with 60 free long distance minutes a month), Digital Cable (no complaints), and CoxHSI (still some hiccups but I still consider it new.) All for about $100. I will never go to anything else. No DSHell for me. My Cox is here to stay  |

First off, Cox is capped at 3000/256. My connection is usually 2400/240. The highest I ever had was with @home 3100/320. The lines aren't bad, but I do know that the node is overloaded. I have no clue how you get 3900. Post a speed test please. And the hiccups are outages, just spur-of-the-moment outages. Like I had one last night, don't know how long it lasted though. BTW, where is Glendale do you live? I'm near the 101 and I17. |

Re: Great service here in Phoenix
This is why wee need massive big government regulation with hard price controls to squeeze out fragmentation. There should NEVER EVER EVER EVER BE MORE THAN ONE NON-COMPETING CABLE COMPANY PER STATE. If others want jump into the fire, overbuild, and compete, fine, but having 2 or more non-competing cable companies only produces huge inefficiencies and massive overhead. People in the minority MONOPOLY provider will never have cable telephony. They will always get the new services years after everybody else and pay far more them.
If everybody had bundles like that, satellite would strictly be in rural communities and these debates would occur. |

Wow, I could download all the ISO images of Red Hat, Slack and Debian, and Suse in about 10 to 15 seconds on that connection of yours...and the bottleneck will probably be my hard drive trying to keep up.
