Adelphia Introducing Premier High-Speed Internet
quote:
Premier High-Speed Internet is a new high-speed internet service from Adelphia that offers even faster upload and download speeds than the standard High-Speed Internet service plus provides enhanced email features. Premier High-Speed Internet is designed for customers actively using bandwidth-intensive services, particularly if the internet connection is also being shared among multiple PCs.
You will enjoy the benefits of Premier High-Speed Internet if some of the following internet usage behaviors apply to you or your household:
* You frequently send emails with large file attachments that are 2 Mb or greater in size
* You upload lots of multimedia files to the Internet, including digital photos, video clips, and music
* You frequently play online games that are highly sensitive to upstream speeds and/or latency
* You live in a household with multiple people sharing the same internet connection and frequently uploading or downloading information at the same time
* You frequently use peer-to-peer file sharing applications
Premier High-Speed Internet addresses these types of internet usage with download speeds of up to 4 Mbps, and upload speeds of up to 512 Kbps. It also provides for up to 7 individual email accounts that can share a total of 70 Mb of network storage. Premier High-Speed Internet is priced at $59.95 per month for residential customers. It is also available at lower prices in our Advantage Paks; contact an Adelphia representative at 1-888-683-1000 for additional details.

| I know I wouldn't want to be a customer where their founders corrupted funds and stole over $3 billion from their company; not to mention what terrible service they provide in my area hearing from other BBR users.
And yes I was wondering about this quote also
"and will be offering firewall, anti-virus and pop-up blocker applications from Zero Knowledge Systems to broadband users."
If their company knew any better they would know that this company doesn't really stop problems from happening; more like just telling you about it and doing nothing; here's the article: »Adelphia Security Suite

A sale was ONE of the options Adelphia has at the close of the auction.
They may choose to stay intact and continue on.
Frankly from all the negative responses from the cable cos. listed @ BBR earlier I doubt Adelphia will be offered what they feel they are worth. |

| Adelphia just turned up the new cable plant here.
We were Teleprompter then Group W then Comcast, forgotten by comcast for all upgrades, then dumped to Adelphia.
In the past four months they have run fiber all over west palm beach, and I just switch to powerlink from bellsouth dsl.
speeds downstream are virtually identical 3meg, and powerlink is 256 up vs 384 for extrmedsl
not a biggie
$24per month for six months then $39.95
works good so far |

Adelphia is not worth much, the kids that have the lemonade stand on the side of the street could buy the company for pennies on the glass. I'm still happy with my DSL from Darth Vader, but their cable services can bite my crotch because it's still not good enough. |

1 edit | I would like to see Verizon Go up for sale
At least Adelphia broght Cable modems and 4/512 service to BFE WV. The only thing Verizon has invested in my area is high bills. My pots line doesn't work sometimes or hum and crackels. Verizon had brought CCTC in my area of WV. Coppper Crap to Curb, or in some areas CCTT Copper Crap to Trailer.......

Amen! And that they are wasting money on services and products that will never see the light of day is incredible dis-service to creditors and shareholders.
