[Novalug] Comcast, was Clear WiMax?

[James Ewing Cottrell 3rd]

Well, when I upgrade to the Triple Play, I get the Introductory Price 
for Two Years, and when I downgrade they usually work out some kind of 
deal too. But of you never change you pay the full price.

But clearly, if Comcast has enough to buy NBC, they are charging too much.

Talk about your Conflict of Interest....Comcast is no friend to Net 
Neutrality.
