According to Multichannel News, cable overbuilder Knology is preparing to buy Kansas-based cable broadband operator Sunflower Broadband (see our user reviews). The deal, which is estimated to be worth around $127 million, will involve the transfer of roughly 30,000 cable and telephone subscribers in Lawrence, Eudora and Douglas counties in Kansas (in contrast, Knology has about 600,000 RGUs). Sunflower was among the first to implement the idea of low caps and high overages ($2 for each additional gigabyte). However, the company has slowly been raising their caps as AT&T begins pushing uncapped U-Verse service harder into their markets. Sunflower customers may be interested to learn that Knology has no caps and is pushing forward with DOCSIS 3.0 upgrades.
