If you do the math, AT&T's 6/1 service is $30/mth...60% of your Charter service. Money/mth reigns king for a lot of consumers, not the "mine is bigger than yours" bragging right.
If you bundle. Last time I checked you can't just get the internet part without getting the TV part. If I don't want the TV part I'm paying a lot of month for nothing. I live in former BS territory and at&t naked DSL is $47 for 6/512. So yes $50 for 10/1 is MUCH better.

 There are several discussions regarding subscribing to UVerse and then dropping the TV portion. Comparing AT&T's DSL and UVerse service isn't fair for your price comparison unless you only mean to compare DSL to cable HSI. In our (I'm in BS territory as well) situation, assuming reliable service from both AT&T and the cableco, I'd agree with you that the cost is a wash. The "much better" claim is debatable though.

Here is SBC territory the 6m/768k naked dsl tier is $38.99 with no phone service. I'm assuming you will have these options available to you soon.

Maybe you can do that. I'm sure the price you pay is a bit higher than $30 if you do. Now if there is someone out there with that info that would be apprciated.

The DSL is 6/512 the uverse is 6/1, not much differnce the comparison is valid. Uverse isn't available where i live and no one has yet produced a stand alone price for uverse internet so I have to go by what data I do have.
