Recent studies predict that more and more consumers will begin to switch to broadband from dial-up at home. A recent study by InStat estimates that by the end of 2006, the U.S. will have 53.2 million broadband subscribers, up from 37 million at the end of 2004. In response, BellSouth has introduced simplified pricing for its BellSouth® FastAccess® DSL service. This new pricing offers a solution for consumers who are still figuring out the best way to get online, said a BellSouth spokesperson.

Under BellSouth's new FastAccess DSL pricing structure, customers' online experiences are affordable and simple-to get, install and use. Customers can experience the world of high-speed Internet for only $24.95 per month, every month, without paying activation or shipping and handling fees.

As consumers' Internet needs tend to differ, BellSouth's tiered-speed approach provides customers with a range of high-speed Internet services that allow them to choose the right speed at the right price to meet their needs:

• FastAccess DSL Lite is perfect for basic Web surfing and accessing e-mail without the delays and hassles of dial-up.

• FastAccess DSL Ultra is ideal for downloading large files, enjoying streaming video and online games at super-fast speeds.

• FastAccess DSL Xtreme, BellSouth's fastest DSL Internet service, allows customers to download, surf and game online at lightning-fast speeds.
