I’m a loyal cable guy for now, but this probably is good news to many people… the price is actually quite competitive, though I am capable of getting up to 6MB down…
Though Verizon has yet to issue a press release or official announcement, our users are now ordering and receiving 3Mbps/768kbps DSL service. Only customers in former Bell Atlantic territory are seeing the upgrades, while Verizon West or Ex-GTE customers are still waiting. Users report it’s not available for those served via a remote terminal, or to those further than 11,000 feet from their CO. The tier costs $39.95 bundled, or $45 stand alone; the upstream speeds making it particularly attractive to many cable users (if they qualify). [broadband reports]
