ATT Internet Update from VP Kristen Shinn

I just spoke with Tony Johnson again at A T & T today. Everything will be in place for our internet by May 15th. He told me that they will come install one piece of equipment in our neighborhood, which will allow internet for everyone within a 3-mile radius. They will not need to dig or install anything at each home. He told me that there will be enough internet for about 198 homes, which is basically our whole neighborhood. They are giving South Ridge first dibs on internet and are therefore taking pre-orders. If you have already emailed me your information, I have already passed it on to A T & T and I do not need for you to do anything else. I need for anyone else in the entire neighborhood who would like A T & T to email me asap their name, address, and phone number. Once the internet is up and running, then it will be open to anyone within a 3-mile radius, whether or not they live in South Ridge. Even if you think you might be interested, but aren't sure, please let me know.

If you want more information, visit: www.att.com and click on internet/ dsl. It will show you the 4 different speeds they offer, along with prices. You will get a discount if you bundle it with your A T & T home phone service. Once you sign up, no payment will be due until the internet is up and running. A T & T will send a modem to your home via the mail and you will set everything up yourself. Right now, A T & T is offering a special for fast access dsl, at any of their speeds for $24.95 a month for a year, after that it will go to regular price, which for their highest speed for dsl extreme 6.0 is $42.95 a month, with a discount if you bundle it with your home phone service. The lower speeds vary in price from $19.95 a month for dsl lite, $32.95 a month for dsl ultra, and $37.95 for dsl extreme. Their internet plans include unlimited monthly usage and you don't have to worry about how much you upload or download each month!

Please let me know if you are interested! After May 15th, anyone within a 3-mile radius of our neighborhood will be able to sign up! Thanks and have a great day!
