You know, back in 2004, when I started our original wireless business,
we had suffered through about 7 years of SBC's declining level of
service after they had purchased Pacific Bell (our regional baby bell).
SBC had made the unadvertised decision to not spend any money on their
rural copper plant.
In 2005, when they bought ATT (and renamed themselves "att"), I saw the
same thing happening more places.
Today, in our area, if you have an att phone line, it is pretty much
crap. If you can't get broadband to do VoIP, or can't get cell service,
you're screwed. Our tall trees and mountainous terrain make that more
likely than you might think.
My bottom line is I don't trust att for much, because they're basically
SBC in att clothing.
