The service is $300 a month (agree to a two year contract and get the early promotional price of $159 per month) with a $500 installation and activation fee. The new service is only available in the Jacksonville, Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach Florida area. This announcement comes on the heels of the $15-per-month "Comcast Stream" launch. The live TV and streaming video service does not require a cable TV subscription, but live TV channels can only be watched on customer's home internet connections.

I think the south east is the only region that actually implements the cap. It's been "suspended" ever since they announced it, at least in California

For only about as much as you'd pay in a car payment, you can have the speed other countries get for about the price of a cup of coffee a day.
