Interspeed Moves In
Lofton City residents will soon have yet another option when it comes to Internet service. The Sacramento-based finn Interspeed is planning to extend its service area to include commercial and residential districts in Lofton City starting next month.
Competition in the telecommunications industry is fierce, with two major national providers already established in Lofton City and surrounding areas. However, Interspeed is confident of suc-cess, according to Art Wang, a company spokesperson.
"Interspeed is going to offer consumers in Lofton City something new: top-of-the-line Internet
service at affordable prices," stated Wang.
While he decided to quote specific rates, it is assumed that Interspeed's basic service plan will cost consumers $18.95 a month, the same as the company charges in its other service areas.
This would undercut the price of the current cheapest plan available in Lofton City, offered by WireTech, and would be well below the $27.49 charged by Imex Systems, Inc., for its most popular plan.

Dear Sir or Madame,
I am writing in response to your article of May 16 entitled "Interspeed Moves In". I was very disappointed to see incorrect information presented about my company. Imex Systems, Inc.
In your analysis of interspeed, you compared the price of its cheapest and most basic service plan to that of our most popular plan. However, because our best-selling service happens to be a high-speed option, the comparison was flawed and gave the false impression that Imex is a much more expensive provider than interspeed. If you had researched our prices, you would have seen that our basic plan costs $19.99 a month, which is nearly the same as the Interspeed plan you cited.
Needless to say, we here at Imex are concerned about the effects this misinformation could have on our business. We expect your paper to take responsibility for the error and print a correc- tion and apology as soon as possible. I would ask that you please contact me at 1-511-555-8011, so I may provide you with accurate information about the pricing of our services.
Thank you,
