Cable modem and phone line ADSL start the same, basically 640K. Faster speeds can be purchased but at greater cost. In general, only the TELECOM's seem to be offering ADSL at faster rates then 640K en mass but it costs a lot more as well.

Surely you jest.

===================

xDSL:

uswest.com

256 kbps == $40 + ISP charge ($19.95)
512 kbps == $65 + ISP charge

===================

Cable modems:

phx.cox.com@home/speed.html

speed: "Typically Cox@Home operates at speeds in the range of 1,500 to 3,000 Kbps."

phx.cox.com@home/pricing.html
