Yep, can only get iDSL through them, 144kbps.  Sucks.  Maybe Xcel energy
will start testing those IP over power line thingies.  Or maybe the FCC will
reverse their decision and force cable providers to open their lines to
other providers.  Or maybe a bunch of us need to get together and build a
nice wireless net and chip in on a fat pipe to the net.  :)
