Default Post ATTBi Capping bandwidth??

Got an email from somebody on the IRC-Elite channel.

This will suck! I'm getting ATTBi installed this Saturday, but might be limited. I sure hope ATT don't pull this stunt here in Portland Oregon.


Dear Valued Customer,
As I Am Sure You Already Know, AT&T Is Very Commited To Giving You, Our Customer, The Best Possible Service. But The Cost's Related To Giving The Bandwidth That We Currently Do Are Enourmous, And To Keep Your Bill At One Of America's Best Broadband Price, We ARe Imposing A Set Of New Price Solutions.

New Prices Effective July 9th 2002 Are As Follows:

First 5 Gigabytes Per Month-$44.95
Each Additional Gigabyte-$7.90

Accounts Effected:
22-557-89-61 (kc2000@att.com)

Due To The Fact That Some Users Require More Bandwidth (Even Though 5gb is more than enough for one month) Then Others There Will Be Another Solution Available:

First 10 Gigabytes Per Month-$74.95
Each Additional Gigabyte- ONLY!! $4.50

If You Have Any Further Wuestions About Internet Bandwidth Capping Please Contact Us At support@att.com And Our Highly Qualified Technical Care Representatives Will Be More Than Happy To Help You

Thank You,
James LaFontaine
President AT&T Broadband California Division

So far, I haven't heard about it in Texas. Though I did notice that they upped their prices here and took away the 50 dollar rebate.

Is it possible that those with their own modems will be able to get service for 35 dollars again in Jan/Feb? Anyway, thanx for telling me because I really wanted to know when their next price change will be and whether it will cut or raise prices.

There's no way you could have gotten that for so cheap. 'round here, those cost a couple thousand dollars per month!

Thats one hell of a deal, Dont every take that connection for granted! I looked in to getting a T1 here at my house but they said it would cost $1300.00 USD a month. Too much for my budget!
