SAD!!!

Man, I'm getting PO'd now. Adelphia moved here in Lancaster October of last year. They're promising PowerLink service soon, and now they may go out of business? Seems as though I'll never get broadband where I live. Oh well, here comes another 2-3 years wait.

Same here in Anaheim. I'm so pissed right now, especially after reading this...

I asked the head guy, "Heard anything about powerlink?" He says, "Maybe in August, Maybe in September, but with all this recent 'news'... maybe not"....

Feel the rage!!!!

This is so disgraceful....

I mean... This is beyond pathetic.

We might as well be back in 1997 with our 56K....

Very few things haven't changed since then... This is one of them....

Second tier doesn't belong here..... Leave!

Re: SAD!!!

I live in Quartz Hill and I'm too far from CO for DSL. Like everyone else in the Antelope Valley, I've been waiting for several years for Jones to offer broadband. Then Adelphia bought them out and the "wait clock" was reset back to zero. Looks like another reset is coming..

I agree. From what I understand, Acton is served by Adelphia, and because Acton's cable lines are soo old, Adelphia decided to temporarily stop deployment of PowerLink service to Palmdale/Lancaster/Quartz Hill, so they can concentrate on upgrading Acton. The wait is, supposedly, June '03:(

We're too far for DSL too... In West Los Angeles of All places.... sigh....

Verizon has refused for years to put in a CEV to reach us. Combine that with Adelphia's inaction, and you have a recipe for 56k..... For the last five years.....

I feel your pain emhinkes. I just do not understand this. It's the year 2002, and technology still refuses to embrace the rest of us:( I wanna play too??? I currently have IDSL at $65/month, which is still better than 56K, but I'd like to have standard ADSL at $50/month even better. Hopefully time is on our side.

This is exactly my point....

We might as well be back in 1997!!!!

VERIZON should be ashamed!

ADELPHIA should be ashamed!
