Re: upgrade SBC Sonic.net here I come! I've pre-qualified by the website so am now cancelling my Covad & with time to clear the line I'll be and ready to roll with the big fat pipe in the next 2 or 3 weeks... Guess the admission price for this deal is DSL withdrawal for a bit 'til then, but it's well worth it, BIG TIME! hehe...this offer better be real, or I'm gonna be a bit bent though.... | |

I'll get out my crystal ball and predict that SBC will offer an up to 6.0Mbps product with PPPoE and a single dynamic IP address for something like $0.04 more than our price, or $44.99, sometime around the first of February.
They will not include eight static IPs, nor shell access. They will not include Supernews access. They won't include VPN service for when you'd like to access securely but are on the road. And, they won't compensate you if you'd like to run a hotspot for neighbors with the massive amounts of bandwidth you now have.
I'd also predict that they will offer a five IP static product for $99.99 at this speed. You still won't get all that other stuff. 
You're in Santa Rosa - stop by and see us, and hopefully we can convince you that our product will meet your needs.
For those of you in Southern California, DSLExtreme's offer is quite compelling if you want static IPs, and I know that they offer Supernews as well, though capped slower.
For those of you who are not in the Northern Cal LATA-1 (Monterey to the Oregon border), or LATA-9 (Stockton/Tracy/Modesto) that we serve, nor in the Los Angeles LATA that DSLExtreme covers, then perhaps an SBC product with PPPoE and all the Yahoo stuff may be a good option!
We'll see if my crystal ball is right sometime in the next week or two. Who knows - it's certainly all good news for consumers, which is excellent.
