AT&T boosts broadband coverage in New York's Hudson Valley
Global communications provider AT&T recently announced that it had developed and activated two new 3G cellular service sites in Kerhonkson, New York and Accord, New York. The plans are part of the company's initiative to improve broadband speed and reliability throughout New York's Hudson Valley. The sites will improve mobile broadband service throughout the area just outside of Albany. The effort is also part of the company's goal to extend its reach while providing the services necessary to improve opportunities for economic growth through broadband development. "Delivering dependable wireless coverage for consumers and business customers who need to stay connected to work, family and friends is our ultimate objective," Hal Lenox, president of AT&T New York, said. "Our ongoing investments in the state will help us ensure that our customers have access to the wireless services that help drive economic growth." AT&T plans to begin offering the high broadband speed later in 2010 throughout the Hudson Valley and continue the expansion in upstate New York. In the first quarter of 2010, AT&T experienced limited financial growth, while spending heavily to expand the reach of its broadband network. Its $30.6 billion revenue represented a 0.3 percent increase from the first quarter of 2009.
