Excite@Home cable internet service has gone bankrupt and has now been cleared to disconnect its service. Reading through the @Home website, ( home.com ) I found some things that sound funny now that they're not in business anymore. From their FAQ page... Nope, you'll be the last -- guaranteed.

Well that sucks for Excite@home users. I don't use them so I'm lucky.

They haven't been shut off yet, the judge just gave them the go-ahead to do so.

Just came around to test out the ole' account. You can get all the updates @ www.speedguide.net AT&T customers are reporting being down- comcast so far has maintained uptime, which makes me happy because they are who provide me service.

Seattle area @home is down now. I recieved a phone call from AT&T this morning saying they would have us back up in no more than a week. considering AT&T owns all the physical assets and only really needs to get enough ip addresses (which im sure they can easily do if they dont already have them), i think they should be able to live up to it...
