Freebie Advert For AT&T's Ten Dollars Per Month DSL
Haven't heard about AT&T's bargain ten dollars per month DSL? The Consumerists theorizes this is because AT&T doesn't want you to know about it:
As part of a concession made to the FCC in order to get its mitts on BellSouth, AT&T is required to offer basic DSL for $10 a month to its entire 22 state coverage area for a period of 2 years.
The plan provides download speeds of up to 768 kilobits per second and upload speeds of up to 128 kbps, matching AT&T's basic plan.
If you can't find the plan listed on the website, don't worry. AT&T wants it that way. ...
Yahoo News has more here, noting: "Another concession to the FCC is yet to come: a plan for DSL that doesn't require local phone service. AT&T has another six months to introduce that option, which should cost at most $19.95 per month."
You can sign up for the $10 per month deal here if you qualify.

And of course you tell me about this after I just got a different internet program...Anyway, I have heard too many bad things about Bell South's DSL to go with them.

You remind me of an e-mail exchange I had with a friend about an ill-fated beach trip. I drove to Folly Beach (near Charleston SC) early one Saturday a.m. and only had to pay $5 to gain admittance to a state park that offered beautiful beaches, bathrooms, showers, water fountains, life guards - it seemed like quite the recreational deal of the summer. Then I got massively stung by jelly fish. Then my beach bag got stolen. Then sharks were spotted and we had to get out of the water. Then a thunderstorm kicked up. But hey, only five dollars!
