Mel,
The Southwestern Bell type of agreement is nothing new. Home alarm companies have been "bundling" services with utilities for awhile now. Last year, ALRM signed a deal with PacifiCorp, in which they would turn on the alarm service when they turn on the electricity. ALRM also has an agreement with a western housing developer where they install the alarm when they build the house. ADT also has a deal with UtiliCorp United.
In regards to the financial Wiz at ADT...it is not ADT's CEO Ashcroft...I really do not know what you are talking about. Any movement in ADT's stock is in response to Tyco International Ltd. trying to take over ADT in a friendly takeover,while Western Resources is trying to take it over in a hostile takeover. The share price has only gone up since these announcements. The financial wiz is the
CEO at Tyco Int'l..there is an impressive stock.
