AOL and Bell-Atlantic sign deal to deliver DSL to AOL customers in the Bell-Atlantic customer area. AOL obviously wants to keep their market share. I know locally, the fastest I can go is ISDN. No cable, no nothing. I could get satellite, probably, but I haven't looked in to it. Also ISDN is 100 a month here I think. That's what I get for living in a county with a total population of around 50,000. cbs.marketwatch.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- Investors take note of Aware Analyst ties rise to AOL-Bell Atlantic deal By Steve Gelsi, CBS MarketWatch Last Update: 5:06 PM ET Jan 13, 1999 NewsWatch NEW YORK (CBS.MW) -- Shares of Aware jumped 14 percent, as the modem supplier got a boost from an Internet service deal between America Online and Bell Atlantic. Seth Wilson, senior analyst at Ernst & Co., an equity researcher for institutional companies, told CBS.MarketWatch.com that Aware's (AWRE) profits may be boosted by the pact America Online (AOL) and Bell Atlantic (BEL) announced Wednesday. Shares of Aware gained 4 3/16, or 14 percent, to 33 15/16 on volume of 2 million shares Wednesday. AOL said it will offer Bell Atlantic's Infospeed digital subscriber line, or DSL, access as an upgrade for AOL members in Bell Atlantic's service area starting this summer. AOL said DSL access will be more than 20 times faster than access via standard modems. See related story. Bell Atlantic plans to make its DSL technology available in areas covering 7.5 million homes by the end of 1999 and 14 million by the end of the year 2000. "There's going to be a lot of modems sold to take advantage of this technology," Wilson said. Bedford, Mass.-based Aware supplies networking specialists such as Lucent (LU) and 3Com (COMS) with software that conforms to the new G.Light standard. On Nov. 11, BancBoston Robertson Stephens initiated coverage of the stock with a "buy" rating. Since then, share prices have doubled to the low 30s from the midteens.
