Well since the AOL DSL bill is pretty outrageous ($56 a month - $23 AOL/$33 DSL). My dad has been wanting to find something that is cheaper, but not lose DSL speed. I've so far looked at info on
Comcast - Offer for its current cable customers, $29.99 a month for 3 months, for their highspeed Cable service. Speed is 3mb/284?, $10 more for 4mb/384. I think installation is free modem is either supply one or lease theirs.
SBC Yahoo - $37 for their pro package a month which is "up to 3mbps" aswell as free modem and activation.
Anyone have any other companies that are worth looking at? These I thought of off the top of my head.
Also anyone with Comcast Cable, we are somewhat in the market for a HDTV Projection screen. Were looking at a Toshiba 57" for $1800 right now at Best Buy as we only have about $2000 ish to play with, so we want a sound system too. Yamaha? anyways Comcast has an option for HDTV cable box ($5 a month more). Worth it if we were to get the bigscreen? or should we skip Comcast and look at something like WoW!? I think our Cable bill isnt all that cheap and we only have one Digital Box and that thing is maybe 2 years old and takes about 10 seconds to change the channel. I know its the box because my grandmother has a new box and its just like changing the channel on a regular tv.
Whew sorry its so long... next thread to come... car insurance
