| $27/month in Washington, but only $22/month in Arizona
Qwest is offering this DSL for life package at $27/month in Washington, where it competes against Comcast, according to this article:
»seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/b···d21.html
In sharp contrast, Qwest is apparently offering the SAME DSL for life package at $22/month in Arizona, where it competes against Cox, according to this article:
»www.eastvalleytribune.com/index.···ty=72050
Am I missing something?
Maybe Qwest has to have a lower price in Arizona because Cox has been offering the triple play so much longer than Comcast has. I hear in Arizona that Qwest could even lose its incumbent phone status because Cox has been so successful with their phone product down there. |

| Losing the status I would think could be a good thing for Qwest, more regulation for Cox and less for them.
I think they still have it in Omaha only because Cox, Alltel and McCloud have each taken a slice of the pie however none hold as much as Qwest alone.
IIRC it's something like
Qwest 40%
Cox 35%
Alltel 15%
Mccloud 10%
Those are guesses based on a old article. |
