Fancy seeing you here Brady. These kinds of ISPs are a fading breed, and the only differentiation between them is customer service. Speakeasy used to have easily the best CS. Now they're like everyone else, sadly.

Brady,

For your properties in the Bay Area, you should look at Sonic.net. ADSL2+ and symmetric Ethernet oC services.

We had Speakeasy as our premier internet provider for all of our buildings http://bentlyholdings.com, and then when they went Best Buy, all of their great account reps were pushed out… and they lost 75% of our business by my choice because of their new reps mistakes. This, going to Covad, that’s the nail in the coffin; my largest issues are often Covad installers not following written, basic, directions. Their transfer to Best Buy lost 10k a month from me, there went the rest.

What 'leadership position' is he talking about? Did I miss something? Perhaps he is talking about their leadership position in the race towards extinction.
