Eve,
I, also tried AOL's one month free access trial. Never had difficulty getting connected but decided to go the cable modem route. When I called AOL to cancel the trial membership, they extended it for two more months. If my cable company is down, I use AOL and I'm online in minutes. That's some of the reasons I decided to buy the stock.

Eve,

AOL rep is probably telling the truth.

Here in Colorado Springs, we had the same problem about 2 years ago. AOL was trading under 30 and I didn't think they could do well since we could never get on. I didn't buy any stock (and how many splits since then???)

Then, they added new lines and new equipment and we haven't heard a busy signal since. Not once!

And look at AOL go!
