But Doc, unless you live in an apartment that faces north, Time Warner has two competitors already - Dish and DirecTV. I keep comparing my Comcast with the two dishes, and even though both now offer my local-into-local channels I still have to pay about the same with any of the three systems to get the channels I want to watch. I doubt that any Telco offering would be priced any differently, after the introductory period. John Shutt ----- Original Message ----- From: "John McClenny" <jamcclenny@xxxxxxxxx> > Surely you jest.
