Thanks for the list. Did I miss that on Speed Factory's website?

That is what I would prefer to have. What peeves me is the sales rep I
talked to at Speed Factory mentioned that Bellsouth has a court order
against them to provide dry copper DSL, but they're refusing to comply.

I can't remember how many times I've seen glowing responses about Speed
Factory on this list. That's why I called them first. :) Although, I'm
getting the feeling I'm just going to have to bend over and get a flat rate
line that I don't want or have a definite need for besides DSL.

Thanks,
