Add the S.F. Bay Area to the list!

Just read in the San Francisco Chronicle that Comcast is jacking up our cable rates another 5% next month.

Gotta pay for that DOCSIS 3.0 and 'powerboost' as well as to subsidize the more competitive markets where FiOS is deployed.
If you don't like it... find another carrier/solution.
IIRC, DOCSIS and Powerboost are for the cable modem service right? If that's the case, raise the HSI rates and leave the TV rates alone! Why should someone receiving only TV service like me (I have DSL for internet access) be forced to subsidize the HSI users?
