- Funny, I have a feeling this will all change pretty soon... The telcos
- will have to do something if they want to be able to compete with the
- cable companies... ISDN prices are dropping here in Montreal. Cable
- companies are installing fiber everywhere for free... Cool, a
- service/price war is always good for the customer :). Hopefully we'll
- see the day when lines will guarantee 10 Mb/s (yeah, right!).
-
- Here the lines are "guaranteed" for 2400 bps (Whoo hoo!). The telcos act
- amazed when you mention you "only" get 24000 with your new 28.8...
- Neverless, I still manage to squeeze in the occasional 28.8 connection
- though.
