CNN.com - High-speed Net may get cheaper -- and slower - August 17, 2002

"Cox Communications, the No. 5 cable provider, has been experimenting with a lower-priced service in Las Vegas, where subscribers can get a broadband connection for $26.95 per month.

The catch?

With download speeds of 200 to 250 kilobits per second, these "broadband lite" services are several times faster than a dial-up telephone connection, but perhaps only a third as fast as a typical cable or DSL connection. "

Lowering the monthly cost so that it looks just a little more expensive then Dialup may cause more people to get broadband.
