OK, at the 10/1 if you transfer to the 16/2 tier, it's $25 more per month plus $35 connection fee. How much are they going to rape customers in these markets for this? Not only that but history dictates Charter will screw this up for a good 5 years before some sort of stability is reached.

 They'll try and milk out as much money as possible. Look at the Comcast 3.0 test market in Minn. Their charging over 100 bucks a month for 50/5 - and you know they'll have other pricing tiers.

Personally charter should just be a leader, and not wait for Comcast to do the pricing model - like every single MSO does.

Want to compete with fios comcast? you need to offer something better in the UPLOAD side. hell Cablevision offers 5mbps upload on docsis 2.0 on BOOST for some $65/month. fios' 50/50 is some ~$90/month.
lets see: 10 times the upload for $50 less and no caps unlike any cableco. cable vs fios is STILL a no-brainer.
