AT&T caps bandwidth.. (Score 1)

No this is not only happening to your friends in California. I am in Colorado and a very disgruntled user of AT&T. I have had AT&T broadband for almost 2 years now and this is the worst thing to have gone through. The switch over after the bankruptcy of @home caused me to be down for over a week. Trying to call in for assistance and information, even after I was supposed to be back up was futile. I would wait as long as 4 hours only to be hung up on or disconnected after finally getting a person that might be able to answer my questions and actually help me. Now I have service, if that is what you can call it. I have less than half the speed I had previously. I still can't get help on the phone and I lost my static IP. My concern, other than the speed, which I understand will never be restored in an attempt to evenly distribute load and requests, is the coming of the new comcast. Will we be down again? Will we ever have full service again? For that matter, what about the pricing? It is going up and the services are becoming less. They are looking less and less attractive, but with no where else to go for service what can a person do?
