I got my DSL hooked up last year in March when Verizon first rolled into town with it. A local ISP had already offered it, but I was willing to take a slight speed sacrifice to get a better price. Since I jumped on the boat right away last year, and committed for a year, I think I have a reasonable price ($39.99/month - 600/90). They have even changed the available speed options & pricing (mine doesn't exist anymore), but I still get what I ordered last year.
If they change things such that I can't continue on this way, I will be severely ticked off. I'm already mad about another dilemma with my damned Dell.
