SBC will continue to offer a bundle of services that include satellite TV through the DISH network until the fiber is ready. About 100,000 subscribers signed up for DISH service through SBC in the third quarter. And because SBC is phasing in fiber, satellite is not being discontinued anytime soon. "We will continue to market and sell the DISH product outside of that [fiber] footprint," Rick Linder, SBC's CFO, said during the conference call.
