"-- WebSpace: The new service increases the amount of total storage space from 15 megabytes to 70. This means that consumers can store a large amount of personal data -- video, photos and Web pages -- online."

Hi Eric- This is awesome! I would pay another 50% for my AT&T@Home service for the increased web space alone! I am ecstatic! Tell me....what other ISP offers this amount of web space? When I was an AOL member, I think I got around 2 megs of space. Maybe that has increased, but I doubt it was even near ATHM's 15 megs. And now 70! I am developing a web site to sell secondary collectibles. The 70 megs is exactly what I need. It couldn't be more timely!!!! ATHM has raised the bar! This news has made a hit with me!

I also love the telephony. It has saved me tons of money on long distance calls. A lot of people are not even aware of telephony and the advantages of using it through broadband instead of dialup. My dad and I are crystal clear when we talk via broadband. When he calls me on dialup, the connection is crackly and poor. You even said that my call to Maui was decent.

I am not too concerned with people not having access to the new site. If it rocks, it will just make us that much more desirable. If people want it, SUBSCRIBE. Give them a taste of it with a watered down version. If you build it...they will come. Let's hope this site is a hit!

Thanks for the post, Eric!
