You wrote, I had to bounce around from news article to company web site and so on before I was able to fully understand they were only offering ADSL service

- Avtel actually made it sound in their PR as if it were their technology, while all they do is provide high-speed internet access to a limited geographic area (DSLink Services will be available to residents and businesses within three miles of one of their local telephone company's Central Offices) What happened to their stock price today is absolutely insane.
