Hi Neal, Your concerns about AOL being locked out of higher speed access are valid. However a quote from the UsaToday article: "Still, analyst Paul Noglows of Hambrecht & Quist thinks fast networks such as AT&T's ultimately will court AOL. " I still think that AOL has a very unique synergy with it's sense of "community". I agree totally that they will have to continue to bust their asses to keep ahead of the competiiton. The moment AOL rests on it's laurels, as with any company, it's a dead duck. I think if AOL recognizes these issues and acts to nip them in the bud, it will remain one of the premier "networks" on the internet and get even bigger. A big "if".
