Well said Darren, and to that end, I'd like to change the subject. I'll be signing up soon and would like a response from those who sign up and use the GTE deal. It sounds promising. I think this time next year there will be so many good connectivity options, it will no longer be an issue, but, in the meantime, I really think reliability is more important than speed. After all, there all so many places your transmissions can slow down besides just in the transmission speed of your modem or ISP. Depending on your ISP and location, a 28k transmission on one system could actually transmit an order faster than a 56k system going through a bad ISP. I appreciate comments on GTE and their connectivity reliability and speed versus other options. Thanks Brent
