residential DSL customers
Interesting bit. BB has so far been good to me, here in our relatively small town where people know each other on a first-name basis and friendly service and knowledgeable techs are the norm. BB in larger cities, L.A. for one, have been less attentive and knowledgeable. That's just me, based on purchasing and getting tips/info.
I've got the only locally-owned and operated service provider as my IP, and Qwest phone co. as
DSL thru the local guys. I pay a monthly $19 to my IP and a $30 Qwest DSL tab on my phone bill. Spendy. Went with the locals as MSN screwed up my email so badly it was unusable 'til I switched back to the local IP for mail.
Is BB Inc. maybe just going to be a holding co? A service provider via Speakeasy? My first reaction: I like BB as a retailer and online shopping source. If they want to invest in the IP business, will that reflact on what they will offer me, the consumer, to the point I no longer want to do business with them? If this is only about 'BestBuy for Business', it sounds like it won't affect me as a purely residential user.
