Yeah! Cable internet is here!
Finally! I live in San Jose, about 2 plus miles from the nearest PO for DSL. My DSL speed is just under 400k.
Comcast recently dug up the street and upgraded all the lines and fibers in the area. I called them last week and was told internet would not be available until near the end of the year. Today a lady knocked on the door and said that our node was now hooked up and we could get cable internet. Also, if I gave her a copy of my DSL statement, I would get 3 mbps down/128k up for $29.99 for a year.
Gee, my DSL is nearly twice that. So, should I get 8 times the speed for half the price?
BTW, that's a rhetorical question. :mrgreen:
