In a move seemingly designed to further our frustrations with broadband providers, Time Warner Cable has soft-announced an "unlimited" package once its new data caps go into place... for an affordable $150 monthly charge.

...

Here's a rundown of what the COO proposes:
  • A limited package for "light users" at 1GB/month, 768KB down / 128KB up, with overage charges of $2/GB/month.
  • Road Runner Lite, Basic, Standard, and Turbo packages at 10GB / 20GB / 40GB / and 60GB caps, respectively, and overage charges at $1/GB/month.
  • A big daddy, 100GB Turbo package at $75/month with overage fees of $1/GB, which, when coupled with that magic threshold of $75 in charges, becomes the "unlimited" plan.
Congratulations Time Warner customers!

Yeah, Austin/San Antonio is where they next plan to roll in tiered pricing. It is TEH SUCK.

And yet Uverse isn't available where I'm at, nor in the area we plan to move.
