Re: phone company

Wow, a phone company selling ...phone service... and data service... what a concept.

Cheers to them for doing what they do and not trying to funnel tv through a straw.
If fiber is a straw then cable must be a coffee stirrer.

Actually Omega I believe he is referring to U-verse which thinks they will push 2 HD channels by ip using a straw. ATT also thinks that we will never need more than 6mbps internet speed. From the beta tests in this area with the Microsoft based software most people wanted to go back to normal cable.

yeah, that's what I was meaning just didn't feel like going through the trouble of explaining it.

Fiber's awesome. Wish more of it were more places!

...I just think TV from the phone company is like buying a car from a grocery store. Now, buying phone from cable is more like getting a free lunch from a car salesman... I still wouldn't really want phone from my cable co, even though it is a nifty idea - just like tv from a telco. ...Just making comparison's here, not trying to pick on either one so much as point out my opinions by means of analogy
