Wow. Now that I'm no longer working for TWC/RR, I thought I'd just check out the price of that Speakeasy service that some of you have been talking about. Yikes! Those prices are a bit up there. I know you get alot more with them, but it's still a bit much, I think. $100 for 6 Meg service? I pay half of that, and can host my own web server, etc. I don't need the 8 email address, the shell access, or the web space. I don't need VoIP. And there's no static IP with that package.
I'm sure the service is good. At that price, it had better be. I suppose it's all in what you're looking for, though, and I'm not looking for all of that, or looking to pay that much for it. -Ben Pitzer On 6/8/05, David W.
