Cicconi also said that the Portland consumers will be the big losers, because if this decision stands, their only choice for broadband access would be US West, which according to him currently has a monopoly in Portland. This odd statement implies that if the ruling stands, AT&T will retaliate by not providing cable access in Portland. The logical result of this AT&T posture if the Portland ruling is upheld and repeated elsewhere is that AT&T's expensive cable infrastructure investment will not be put to any broadband use. IMO, this is all just bluster and posturing by AT&T. The writing is on the wall, and the sooner they get a deal struck with AOL the better. David T.
