Re: Not much longer

Let's see here:

My last phone bill: $74.43
My last electric bill: $40.36
My last cable bill (TV+Inet): $43.85

I think I'm more concerned with phone prices than Internet prices. My electric bill goes up to the high 60's for 3-4 months of the year, so averaged out it would make my TV and Internet easily the least expensive.

Looks like I need to move to Moses Lake. Here your choices are:
DSL 39.95
Cable 39.95

Or in my case until Friday this week:
Cable (TV + Internet)89.95

Last Elect/Water $83.00, which is about average. Then again, this is a well insulated one bedroom apartment w/2 people so we don't use much electricity.
As for telephone, I use Viatalk, $199 for 2 years.

Unfortunately, I have to use a cell phone and lots of anytime minutes, since I do on-site work.

Straight up DSL and Cable Internet prices are $30+, but I got in on a special bundle offer (they normally only take $4 off for bundling) which cut the Internet portion by almost half.

Right now I am paying RCN $26/mo for 6mbps/384kbps, now that is an introductory price for 12months but I believe it should be this price all the time. Basic cable also comes over the same line if you hook up to your tv, so you have internet/basic cable for $26/mo. If they offered this they could grab a considerable part of the market. A friend of mine was paying over $130 for ComcastHD/Internet, he told them he was switching to DirecTV and they lowered bill to $60. Give me a f'n break, Why wasn't this the price in the first place. If $60 was the price all the time then FIOS would not stand a chance.
