Michael Cai, a senior analyst with Dallas research firm Parks Associates, does not expect broadband over power lines to take much business away from DSL and cable modems, which have become well-entrenched in many high-population areas. "It's best positioned in the underserved markets," Cai said of BPL.

Plus, with prices for lower-speed DSL access beginning to drop below $15 a month in many areas, BPL operators may have a harder time carving a niche in those places. Price, after all, was what drew Duquesne customer Reese to the power-line technology.

"Forty dollars a month is really a lot of money," Reese said. "At $19.99 - that's a lot more doable."

I had their Direcway for internet for a couple of years the second time around. For the price it sucks big time and I can't wait til someone puts them out of business. I was buying the 89 dollar a month service and all it gives you is a static IP.
I have been waiting on BPL ever since the first news article came out.

Anyone that has broadband be it DSL or Cable does not need to be dissing the BPL. There are millions of people stuck with dialup over antiquated phone lines.
I would be willing to pay at least 60 bucks a month for DSL or Cable if I could get it.
