AOL, Gateway to jointly sell DSL service NEW YORK, Jan 19 (Reuters) - Top Internet services provider America Online Inc. , which is set to acquire media giant Time Warner Inc. and personal computer maker Gateway Inc. , said Wednesday they signed a deal to start trials of high-speed Internet service products. The companies said in a statement they will begin offering high-speed access using digital subscriber line (DSL) technology to consumers in San Diego, California, and Timonium, Maryland. The DSL service will be sold at Gateway stores in those areas. Sales representatives will determine whether a customer is eligible for the service based on the location of a person's home and and telephone line characteristics. DSL technology, which takes advantage of unused capacity on existing phone lines, allows customers to use a single line to send faxes or make phone calls while surfing the Internet. The DSL service is part of a broader AOL-Gateway alliance, which includes cross marketing of products, as well as co-development of Internet products. AOL shares were up 1-13/16 at 62-9/16 in Wednesday morning trading on the New York Stock Exchange while shares of Gateway were off 1/16 at 58-5/8, also on the New York Stock Exchange.
