AT&T DSL can't deliver better than 768 kb/s to my house (nor can they deliver anything to most of my neighbors). If I could sustain that 24×7 for 30 days, (and if I've done the arithmetic correctly) it would amount to roughly 200 GB. Thus 150 GB monthly cap for me has no real effect. But if I had a real plan, I'd be pretty peeved.
Supposedly AT&T U*verse can deliver more modern rates in my neighborhood, but, despite sending me about 10 advertisements a week and occasionally sending a sales droid to my door, they refuse to sell it to me. Really. I've tried to sign up twice.
I switched to Comcast for 2.5× the price of DSL. They manage to deliver decent bandwidth whenever the service is actually up. Streaming an entire Netflix movie without significant stalls is still a pie-in-the-sky dream.
Competition? Yes, please. I live in Silicon Valley. Please send me some competition. Cell phone coverage would be nice as well.
