Re: :P People don't give a crap about 10Mb anything. They shop price which is why when VZ and AT&T had their dirt cheap DSL deals they flat smoked cabled in new adds.
Even with FiOS, you can see from the DSLR archive that people buy the cheapest tier.
Price is king and AT&T should take advantage of it with more dirt cheap DSL and then upselling some of those customers to other services as it becomes available. It's easier to upsell a customer than steal a customer from a competitor. |

Chico, CA | No so for everyone. I dumped my 6M (top tier) AT&T dsl line which when added to basic phone service cost me $59/mo and opted for $67/mo Camcast 16M/2M HSI. For an additional $8/mo I get 2.5+ times the speed, a bargain in my view. |

| umm, well, assuming you don't use you comcast. Lets say you go crazy, and download 1000GB in a month. That will set you back $1100.00+ in overage charges, making the 6M AT&T look like a bargain in comparison. Ask yourself, why get the speed if you can't even use it?

Nice speed increase. At least until the neighbors all decide to pay-per-view Sex in the City until your about 2mps. |

Chico, CA | That might prove difficult because it turned out that my cable connection is the only one in the box, so at least none of my immediate neighbors can slow my connection. |

$1100.00+ in overage charges would make my old dsl look like a bargain, but that is not going to happen. Who says I can't use it, the speed that is? |
