Re: I would try it

Not even competition. Just as stated before. Price for Full digital cable and lowest internet tier (1.5mb down) is between $55-$65/month! You think I want to upgrade to a similar tier for $85/month?!?! {LAUGHS}

I will be switching to cable's 10/1 tier as soon as my ATT contract expires. They had the balls to offer a 6/7xx for the same price as the 10/1 tier (for a while)... {scoffs...}

I don't even have digital cable, just basic. Rarely ever watch TV. I just want internet plain and simple. With a video boom on the horizon there will soon be enough TV on the internet (BOTH free AND paid) for any TV-phile.

Guess I will never see any competition here as long as ATT has outrageous prices and a "no one needs fast internet" attitude. Goodbye ATT.

Cable companies offering prices like that are few and far in between as far as I know. I pay nearly $80/mo for Time Warner for just TV, and that's just with one DVR.

Ya, TW offers cable here too, for much more dough. For the most part they offer the same channels (except TW looks like they offer more premium channels).

You should see if there are any other companies offering lower-cost cable in your area.
