[Shotimes] OT - ISDN Anyone?

[Redcard]

Yes youre right and it is a bargain. I can download a 2300 KB piece of music
in about 6-8 seconds when the service it at its fastest.  I have no
complaints with my service or customer support. All the setup hard ware is
free   and ancillary add ons are reasonable like wireless remote ect.  Jim

I hope you're talking about 400-500KB for your cable service!!! I typically
download a 4-5Mb file in a matter of seconds, 10-20 depending. I had DSL
for awhile and got disgusted with interruptions etc. I have no intention of
changing my cable for anything. Plus setup was free; inc. modem. Its one
of the true bargains out there.
