Re: why so low? Time Warner is the only other real competitor to AT&T in my area, and their caps, from what I've read, could be even more stringent than AT&T's.

Well I guess if you get BOTH at&t and TW you'll get somewhat halfway decent internet. Goingot cost you over $100 amonth but hey was advance when we can party like it's 1995. |

TimeWarner do not have usage caps, they are running a trial in Beaumont, TX but nothing has been decided yet. On the other hand AT&T's trials look more serious and maybe they will be implemented much faster... AT&T is hinting a at a second trial market before 2008. I foresee more markets added to the list in the first quarter of 2009.
Personally, I think cablecos use caps to scare away bandwidth hogs and steer them to the telcos. Unfortunately AT&T's slow reaction to this situation will make them look like the bad guys (which they are). |

I inquired about Earthlink's caps and was told they are the same as TWC. |
