Re: Dial Up Price Increase

said by Frohike See Profile :

Do you think ATT makes money off of 10-15 people using dialup service in small towns to keep a local access number active?
If they plan to keep the "free" dial-in service for DSL users to have when they travel etc, aren't we talking about the same service/facilities? If keeping the modem racks and numbers is such a pain...we all better watch out because they will want to dump all dial-up.

said by Frohike See Profile :

...they aren't pushing the price up to keep a profit margin - they simply would love to do away with dialup service.
That has a clearer ring to it for me. I could believe that they'd rather we DSL users move to some wi-fi scheme for travel.
