I don't know. That's why I dumped Comcast like a stale loaf of bread.  But I know that it had nothing to do with the population.

I get speeds around 8MB with Cox Cable internet, which is pretty fast. You can get it for only $9.95 a month, too. B)

Wait. Its probably 9.95 a month, for a certain amount of months, then the price goes up. More often than not, thats how it works.

Yeah, are you sure that $9.95 is the permanent price, and not just some introductory rate?

Cox is cheaper and faster than Comcast! I wish I had Cox cable in my area as long as they don't provide an intelliSTAR.

I can't find it on the website but I'll watch for a commercial, they usually state the prices in the commercial.
