Comcast supposedly doubling rates
Found this little tidbit at fuckedcompany.com.

Rumor has it Comcast is in the process of sending letters to 200,000+ customers that were aquired with the AT&T broadband aquisition, doubling rates for high-speed internet. Will customers cancel?
When: 3/26/2004

3. Yes, in a heartbeat
They were supposed to be doubling the bandwidth for all service too, from 1.5mb to 3mb. I'm still at 1.

7. 1.5mb to 3mb
I've had the new speed for a couple of months now.

From what I've read at http://www.dslreports.com/forum/comcast most people have the new speed.

8. I'll quit and get DSL
They just lowered my monthly rate ten bucks, and I signed up for basic cable. So for the same rate I get both. If they try to screw me though, I'm outta there.
