Gila River Telecommunications, Inc. (Tribal)

Gila River, in partnership with NeoNova Network Services, Inc., Tinhorn Consulting and Letha Lamb, will test the effect of subsidy amounts, access to discounted equipment and broadband speeds on adoption by randomly assigning subscribers into five groups based on different price points, speed and access to equipment, which includes the use of a control group.  The subsidy amounts for the broadband plans range from $23.24 to $38.24 with varying speeds.  Gila River will track which consumers choose to participate based on the variations in broadband service.
