We had Charter until Suddenlink bought them in 2006, in the beginning the Charter-Suddenlink Transition was not great, reliability issues, Etc. We think the price is great for the Internet we have TV and Internet and the price for the Internet is 34.53. That was a 3Mbps Service but now they boosted the speed to 6Mbps for no extra per mo. Upload is usually always around 270Kbps. We usually get about 6300k down/ 264k up. They now offer a 12Mbps down/ 768Kbps up in our area for 59.99/ mo.
UPDATE: Aug 12th, 2009
Suddenlink has been pretty reliable since the Charter Transition, we have only had maybe 4 short outages total since 2006. We now have TV, Internet, and Phone service all with Suddenlink. The phone service is very clear and for the most part has been very reliable. There TV Service has not changed really at all I think since 2006 they added maybe a total of 5 new HD Channels, picture quality is fine on digital & HD channels, the analog channels however are pretty bad quality.
Today our speed tier was increased from 6Mbps down/ 256Kbps upload to 8Mbps down/ 768Kbps upload   , which the increase is nice but its still well behind the other cable companies. Other companies have deployed DOCSIS 3 and increased speeds a lot more, while Suddenlink is still DOCSIS 1.1 in my area... Regardless the increase in speeds are nice and I'm sure Suddenlink will eventually upgrade to DOCSIS 3 in my area, but for now I am definitely happy for the speed increase!!! Also the price of the internet as of YET has not increased since the speed upgrade
