 tim006 join:2002-09-27 Lake In The Hills, IL | poised or posed sure seems as if they are poised, but i suspect it's a pose for now. Cable has the market share for now. The caps are there to reserve some bandwidth. sbc is wide open right now, but what about the future? I don't see a profit for sbc at the current rates. That only means one thing, higher prices when they are done getting thier market share, and limitations when the bandwidth is used up. Also, limited distance and building on copper wires up to the optic lines. Their new speed pkg.s are advertised as 1.5 to 3 but really go up to 6.0. That won't last. Because of this site, the word gets around, but once the co's have all the customers they can handle, the honeymoon will be over. Dsl, means phone co. Phone co. has a long history of making money, and i mean LOTS of money. Think that will end? Especially with sbc (texas company) involved? It sure is a good deal for now but without bbr, their support is just as shitty as cable. On it goes. -- let go of the mouse. |
