What happens to existing customers?

FU?

This is no deal really. 7 megs at $30, then it jumps to $40.

big whoop.

17 bucks for 1.5 K down is a pretty good deal for basic users. All I do is general surfing, a little Break.Youtube and the occasional song download.

Would be a good deal for me, but I'm not in Cox territory

7 for $40 is pretty mainstream. But how many cableco's have a $10 or $20 tier at all. As far as I know Comcast is not one of them. I think knology has something around 256k that was targeted at dialup migration.

Comcast does offer an "Economy" 384kbps/384kbps tier in many markets for $30-$40 but it isn't advertised -- it's used only as a retention tool.....

WHY is this even making the front page?
intro rates that go up after a few months are nothing new.
doing nothing for existing subs(nothing new here either)
the $9.99 offer used to be for 6 months, i've noticed their newer ads have dropped the intro to 3 months.
Cox wheres YOUR "Price for life"?

I got excited and thought i'd have to eat crow when i saw this on the front page. guess i can confidently say "Cable bills do NOT go down unless you drop to lesser levels of service"
