Max, Perry, I just finished installing a Toshiba cable modem from Time Warner - Road Runner. I couldn't get DSL for another year. Here are my test results:

Speedus.com 800k
Toast net 630k
Road Runner 3 meg

In spite of the inflated numbers from RR. I'm very pleased so far. Hookup incurred a charge for a 3Com fast ethernet card, and dropping a coax into my study ~$80. Rate is 39.95 per mo if you have cable service, otherwise $44.95.

They hooked up within two weeks of order. Tech was competent, although we had problems that were related to my computer, which I later resolved.

I love getting a full page photo in less than a blink of an eye. Now, I'm finding that the delays are not on my side, but at the url servers. Not all, some are instantaneous.

Some strong numbers here for ADSL. Check the number of lines installed in April as compared to February. Also the installation rate is growing.
