Bell Sympatico since '98 here, no major downtime in the last few years ('98 thru '01 were hellacious at times, but I put that down to growing pains)

I was just going to say. Wait till we get 90% of the current highspeed customers up to the 10-15Mbps ;)
Then wait for Bell's 'IP TV' service. It will own. :lol:
Who Is Your Isp? - scoobasteve - 08-31-2005
SHADDDAP... Watch out for rogers... lol
w00t for soft launch.
I wish i was RCI and not rogers telecom so i could brag about non redundant services...
ADSL coming soon.

Yes & no. I was interested in the TV over phoneline solution from Bell as I have my Internet with them but no HDTV = No Sale.

As far as I know Bell has not launched any sort of Internet TV service as of yet, so that would make sense that they didnt sell you anything :P
I test these things for Bell, so if it was coming I would have tested it by now. We've started seeing 'screen shots' of the software and some promotion videos but thats about it.
The only Television service Bell has is satelite threw Bell Express VU. ;)
Bell Internet Tv or IPTV should be out by end of 2nd 1/4 of 2006.....
EDIT: It makes sense that you would want the IPTV threw an HDTV. The pciture quality is night and day.
