It is fun seeing them fight, isn't it? I have a triple play through  
Charter cable which AT&T can't seem to beat. But, they dutifully send  
someone around every few months to see if I want to switch so that I  
can pay $20-$30 more a month. It's a hard to refuse offer. :-)

I'm actually irritated at both companies for different reasons at the  
moment, but that's a long story. Maybe I'll switch to a totally Wi-Max  
based solution when Sprint & Friends brings it around here!
