| I'm Voting YES
I moved to St Charles a year ago and was shocked that I couldn't get broadband. I had lived in two areas that had it, including the out-skirts of the Louisville, KY.
After getting a couple of responses from the good folks at the City of St Charles as to why we didn't have broadband, it became clear.
Later I obtained a slow but semi-useful DSL through Directv DSL. Ameritech would not connect me as I had not lived in the area long enough. I then had to switch to Speakeasy as Directv DSL went down. I am still not happy with the speeds that I am getting with DSL. I have missed my cable broadband.
There is no excuse for the big companies to have not had broadband out here long ago. If I could get it in the middle of nowhere in Kentucky then it should be available in a highly populated area surrounding Chicago. It is clear that they did screw it up and dropped the ball big time. I am excited to see a municipal broadband in the works. I am voting YES! -- Charles »www.livexradio.com |
