i dumped thee ole landline altogether, so no dial up for me, not that id want it anyway, after the feel of dsl/cable, i couldnt deal with it. I saved 70 plus dumping my phone, costs 55 approx for my rr turbo. I think it would be cheaper if cable here wasnt a monopoly. I hear ya on the comcast comment down there, we have time warner only here, nothing else. Theres still major freeway construction going on here so dsl cant be even laid yet, they said 2 more years, so no competition in sat,cable, or phone. Sure you could get dish network or direct tv here, but we live in the flood plains, how often do you want to look at searching for signal? Its all trees around here, so forget about the 80+ percent signal too. Here it is Christmas time and its like seattle out there. Id like to know where all this rain is when the farmers need it! oy! Even still with sat's, noooo internet availabilitys, cause freeway redo's, no dsl optics have even been laid or expect to do so for 2 years. I have seen comcasts offers, seems loads cheaper then im paying for tw. My cable bill/internet, is approx 120. thats for basic extended cable, heck ours charges 2 dollars for just wgn and tbs!
