I'm in a housing developement that changed from Adelphia to TWC 11/06. They got REAL busy and we had digital throughout the old Adelphia analog infrastructure by 3/07. Got my cable hi-speed early April, but I passed on the phone, they still only have about 94% up-time, and I don't have a cell backup. Surprisingly, Sprint-now-Embarq has been extremely reliable, even out here in the 'country', and they started offering DSL 9/06. But the faster cable service was coming so I waited. The only complaint I have is that when TWC laid in a new cable to upgrade my drop for digital, they seem to have 'trenched' my septic tank laterals, I discovered last week, while doing some other 'homestead' investigation. I suppose this will wind up being a $$$ nightmare! Guess that will be determined after the county confirms my suspicions. frown John C.
