Subject: RE: BS: Alt. contacts for @home Mudcatters
Thanks, Amergin, Steve and Clinton. Good advice.

What I read was, yes, AT&T does have its broadband division, it is what we pay to every month for highspeed internet access and email.

AT&T used Excite's @home server, or whatever, to put people like us on. They are now in a pissing contest, leaving a bunch of us out in the cold, while AT&T hurries to build up more of its own network. And, they are still, I think, trying to buy @home. I heard on NPR, today, that only 15% (I think) of the @home folks were still cut off, like us. Not sure, I may have heard wrong.

Clinton, I will check that out. Hotmail is really fecked up!

Thanks!
