Re: Qwest Is To Late
Cox has taken significant business from Qwest in Phoenix, but Qwest still does pretty well there. Cox cable is significantly more expensive with only 512k upstream speed- as with pretty much everywhere else DSL competes on price instead of speed. If you're willing to make a 2 year commitment, Qwest's 7M/1M (or 7M/896k) service is still $8 cheaper than Cox's 7M/512k.
Yes, Cox has 12M/1M, but at $60 a month. The average user who just surfs the web, uses e-mail and downloads the occasional picture really has little need for 12M. Most users aren't as speed-obssesed as the majority on this forum, and will often opt for a 1.5M connection that costs half as much. |
