So, let me see if I've got this straight:

ATHM is a cable/fiber optic ISP that gives you fast net access. Its competitors are the phone-line-based ISP's like ELNK and AOL. ATHM is way faster than those guys, but not everyone can get it yet because the fiber-optic network is not developed enough. The faster the fiber optic network is built, the more ATHM will crush its competitors.

Is that pretty much how things stand? Would anyone care to post or direct me to an ATHM faq explaining this company's outlook and what the investment thesis behind it is right now?

I admit I bought some shares without doing all the research I should have, but blazing net access sounds like a license to print money. Tell me why I should buy more, please. And when will mere mortals like myself be able to get ATHM's service?

Thanks,
Justin
