Just say no to dial-up...

Cable rocks...at times I've noticed transfer (download) rates for far more that the 2megs/seg advertised...uploading is still 125k/seg. But for the price of AOL & a second phone line you can have cable instead, yeah?

Happy Treo 600 user, so far. Thanx Cingular for having an unlocked phone.

My Treo 600 is my phone, my PDA, my watch, and my MP3 player. Oh yeah, I take a picture once in a while with it. Convergence is such a great thing.

Don't do it! Stay in there! Remember: the sooner they put in cable or DSL, the more money THEY make, so they probably are rushing to get it in. Hope that keeps you alive and waiting for a few more months .
