I've had Verizon DSL for a few years now and happened to go to their home page. They are offering DSL 768k down/ 128k up for $14.95 with one year agreement. First month free but $20 setup fee. I thought the $14.95 was an introductory offer for only a month or two like you see a lot but it appears it's for the whole year although there is a early termination fee. Now the speed isn't nowhere near as fast as modern dsl or cable but still will of course blow away dial up. With the taxes and fuse fees etc., you know it's going to be closer to $20 but still aren't services like earthlink and AOL over $20? I pay $30 a month for the Verizon 3meg/768k service and consider it a great deal as well. If you're into newsgroups, Verizon has the best free one with no usage limits.
