Re: Under AT&T/BellSouth merger this ends, right? The fact that the FCC required a maximum of 768 tier, that again shows a failure of the FCC to protect the consumer. I can't wait for American Thieves & Thugs to come back and tell the consumer that it's a technical reason why only 768 can be offered naked. Of course, they will have a hard time with that as Qwest has been doing it for years now, WITHOUT the FCC making them.
The fact that a speed was mentioned AT-ALL in the deal means that someone was in the pocket of the phone company as well.
This is the time where at&t sits on their hands, shuts the F up and accepts the terms of the deal ... either take it, or leave it.

 ·AT&T DSL Service
| It's also disappointing that they only have to offer it for 30 months. I mean wtf? This is a concession? BS!
So, you'll be able to get naked DSL, at the same price as it would cost now, or very close to it, for bundled service... BUT it will max out at 768 down and will only be for 30 months tops.
Great deal.... NOT....
