Re: Competion?

I am in San Antonio, Tx. And I don't have a DSL provider in my area. SBC SW Bell is the local phone carrier. Also I have (1) one cable choice, Time Warner. I choose Dish Satellite and Earthlink Cable for the computer. As I said this is San Antonio. These are my only choices. SBC SW Bell might wire my part of town next year. Who knows, This is a town of (1) million plus.

As it's been stated before, I will say it again- this article isn't saying that there is too much broadband competition. It's saying that there is too much telecom competition.

There is a HUGE difference. As far as broadband, no one wants to invest in it when there is no profit to be made- and that includes the RBOC's. There is NO incentive to deploy a product when you are required to share your investments with your competitors who invest nothing.

How many choices do you have for wireless? Long distance? The world of Telco goes far beyond DSL.
