Notice how it's still $7.95 a gigabyte and sympatico can change the
contract at any time. What if these people download hundreds of
gigabytes a month and sympatico doubles that $7.95 to $15.90 a gigabyte?
Well, now that the caps are ending for Sympatico customers, what
happens to the DSL reseller out there? Do the 'agreements' between
Bell Nexxia and it's DSL resellers change? Will we still see caps at
(most of) the resellers or will they change too?

The agreements did not change when caps where introduced so there is no
reason why they would change when the caps get removed.

Now that's doublethink or Alice in Wonderland or Bob Carrick or ...
Bob's right. The capping/uncapping was a decision by Sympatico, not
by Bellnexxia. Please show why you think they were connected.

It must be the wording - how can agreements not change if caps are used
and then not?

Because as we said that was between SYmpatico and it's customers, not Bell
Nexxia and it's ISPs.

Aren't you the same guy wh0 said you'd come back to this newsgroup after
you moved to Boston? Well everyone is still waiting for your return.
We've only been waiting about 19 years.

They never had anything to do with Sympatico. Non Sympatico DSL providers
using Bell's copper loops pay $x per month per subscriber and then some
sort of network connection fee for a FastE, OC-3 or GigE connection to
Bell's ATM network. Whether the individual end user used 1byte or
100Gigbytes it doesnt / didnt matter as its not usage based to the ISP.
