> Internet access into the home via cable modems is picking up steam

Agreed! My cable provider has teamed up with one of the bigger
ISPs in LA to offer high speed internet service on cable.
They offer two rates. The cheaper package goes for $49.95
and gives you 56K upload and 256K download speeds. The expensive
package goes for $74.95 and gives 128K upload and 512K download
speeds. The price includes a monthly modem lease of $15. The
provider's fee is also incuded.

This service has just started around here and I'm sure prices
will drop rapidly. People who have added an extra telephone line
can drop the extra line and suddenly $49 doesn't seem that bad.

Incidently, before I forget, they use an "Intel ethernet card".

Cheers,
Shahen Petrosian.
