AT&T: A $10 DSL Offer

AT&T has introduced a ten dollar ($10.00) a month DSL plan. This offer was done with very little marketing:

“The $10 offer is available to customers in the 22-state AT&T service region, which includes former BellSouth areas, who have never had AT&T or BellSouth broadband, spokesman Michael Coe confirmed Monday. Local phone service and a one-year contract are required. The modem is free.”

Before committing to the contract, it would be prudent to read the fine print to see if there are any restrictions. Please note the comments of one unhappy DSL customer on the aforementioned link. There are two things that are somewhat curious: if this is such a customer friendly offer, why was the rollout so quiet? and if one wishes to look at the terms of the one year contract, why is it so difficult to find on the AT&T site?
