Finally, a press release with some real substance to it. Retail purchase and self installation of an ADSL line is a BIG deal! I had to wait for BellSouth to send out a repairman to install my ADSL line and pay about $300 for parts & installation. He had to put an extra box on the side of the house to send the signal from my line direct to the ADSL box at the central switching station. I wonder how COMS circumvents this installation step. BUT IF COMS IS WAY AHEAD ON THIS THEN THIS IS A MAJOR TECH ADVANTAGE!
