Craig, the $29 is for DSL only, and if you use USWest as your ISP, then they give you a break and it's only $18 or so, so about $47 for the combo. You can use somebody else as your ISP, but last time I looked, the cheapest reasonable solution was $25/month. They do have a $19.95/mo option for the DSL, but it limits you to 4 consecutive online hours (sort of like connecting to a modem bank in the old days ;-) ) Prior to getting my DSL line, however, I had a 2nd line for my computer which cost about $20/month, so the extra ten bucks has been pretty easy to manage.
