^^ Decent down speed but overpriced! With charter you can get that same speed for about $15-20 less.
It's overpriced because it's a monopoly. As far as I know, Cox is the only cable available to the apartment complex in Phoenix, AZ that I'm living in for the time being.
Even though there are surely other services in my area, as an apartment renter my choices are limited to what the management decides its renters should have. I lived in Roseville, CA for a couple months and the only options (for my apartment) were an obscenely overpriced 3mbps local cable company or DSL.
I suppose if I ever buy a house freedom in my choice of Internet provider will be one of the benefits.
But just in case, I will look up Charter. Is it a wide-spread provider? Do you happen to know their areas of service?
