Qwest has unveiled a new $80 a month bundle package that includes 7Mbps DSL, DirecTV's "Choice Xtra" TV package, and unlimited and nationwide calling. As Bernie Arnason at Telecompetitor notes, there's a few caveats. Customers must sign a two-year contract, some of the bundle discount involved rebates, HD video content is $10 more per month, there's obviously a lease involved with the DirecTV gear, and you need to pay a $19.95 handling fee. Nudging the price below the fairly standard industry $99 fee is a good sign that Qwest, whose ability to upgrade their network is limited, is seeing increased competition from cable operators. One problem? Many Qwest customers still can't get faster than 1.5Mbps.
