| Re: When will AT&T It's because At&t focus is television not broadband if they wanted every one to have up to 25 megabits they could easily. The problem is they have a personal grudge against cable company's. When they see a cable company taking away their bread and butter land lines they want to go for cables bread and butter television service.
I guess it all breaks down to money. Apparently to AT&T the demand is an alternative to cable or Satellite tv, even if the market is saturated with video providers. U verse is AT&Ts lame attempt to compete with cable television, its not about bringing broadband to new people or expanding speeds, its about video. | |

Hingham, MA | Re: When will AT&T It isn't some strange hatred of cable- television is way more profitable than internet service, even with carriage fees. | |

Valencia, CA | Re: When will AT&T I tend to agree... Cable companies, however offer Internet and VoIP only packages, while Telco does not... even though Telco has been primarily DSL+POTS for many years.

| Re: When will AT&T Telco = at&t in this case, I presume...
There was a post in an earlier thread that claimed there were union problems between U-Verse installers and DSL installers that prevented TV-free U-Verse from being sold, though I don't know how accurate that really is. | |

Coloma, MI | Rick's on-target editorials are far more interesting than T's weekly press release/announcment that they have deployed another VRAD. Yawn!

Oklahoma City, OK | It's one thing to to disagree with some one its totally with out class to insult some one. Rick is right about AT&T they really need to deploy fiber to the home in order to compete.
I guess the thought of the cost makes AT&Ts investors cringe. | |

| Re: Rick? said by Tweak  :It's one thing to to disagree with some one its totally with out class to insult some one. Is 'long-winded' an insult?
Is 'anti-AT&T' an insult?
Is 'rant' an insult?
That pretty much covers my post, don't think I put any insults in there. You, however, just insulted me with the 'with out class' remark.
If I was going to insult people, I'd just turn this account over to my wife. She's a pro!
