Re: Uh..

I think having all that speed, and those caps, would make me cry.

Re: Uh..

What should it cost for 50 Mbps speed?

Said by Surewest's news release: The 50 Mbps product is valued at $259.95 per month.

I just wonder if they really would get someone to pay $415.18 a month for the bundled service?

In all honesty its not that bad of a price. I currently pay $130 for my cell phone, $170 for my cable TV plus internet, $20 for my VoIP line, and another $50 for my landline. So my total starts at about $370 per month, and goes up depending on usage and PPV. So $415 is really no big deal, and you are getting so much more on the internet side. As for the caps, I never go anywhere near 40GB (not even 10GB!) so that seems more than fair to me.

Re: Uh..

As far as getting a deal goes you're being screwed. I pay 100 for Cable Tv (ALL CHANNELS, including all the premium movie channels) + 20/2 UNCAPPED internet (RCN), 35 for my cell (free nights weekends+300 minutes) + 30 for my unlimited VOIP.
So a total of about 1/2 what you're paying, and a 1/3 of this "surewest" deal.

I never said I was getting a deal. In my case, even if I had the option of getting your plan it wouldnt work for me. I use a whole lot more than 300 minutes (and the overage is what kills you!) on my cell, and I would never allow VoIP to be the only phone line in my home in case of emergency. The other thing to consider is that prices are different everywhere. So just as you have a better pricing schedule than some, the SureWest $168 deal beats yours hands down.

I would JUMP at the chance to buy the $168 plan that includes TV, unlimited phone, unlimited cell phone, and 10m symmetrical service. Hell, I even think the $415 plan is worth it, so the $168 plan is a dream come true!
