Sandy Hook, CT | Re: At least Jessie James used a Gun! So let me see if I understand this....
AT&T wants to charge 2X more for this VOIP vs. their current CalllVanatge service, which they are going to shut down.
AT&T has pitched Uverse as an improvement (to whom I wonder)as it will cost them substantially less to run and maintain then their existing copper lines. (AT&T's own words to the investment community to justify the capex).
So charge more money for a service that costs them less to provide.......
If you are optimistic, you can say that they are setting this price artificially high to eventually cut the price for bundle customers
If you are pessimistic, management and shareholders will be laughing all the way to the bank.
Either way, it looks underwhelming to me.
JMHO. |

As for shareholders laughing all the way to the bank, I dunno. at&t keeps pulling moves like this and their customers are going to be jumping ship...
