Mr Mohr, GV has been only around for less than a year. Please give them some time to grow some legs and feet to stand on. Perhaps the limitation is not cost at this point, but the infrastructure. Again, they are still in private beta, meaning they are not claiming to be a legitimate service providing service to everyone, unlike A&T or Sprint or Verizon.

I've lived in a lot of different places in my life, and AT&T certainly does not provide DSL or a phone line in all of the United States.
