In regards to AVCO "new" modem - it has been offered in Winnipeg for almost 8 months now. It is called ADSL and works over the phone line. I have used both cable and ADSL, and cable is still the superior system. Both have similar downloads (1.5Mb/s), however the upload for for ADSL is only 64k/s. In addition, ADSL cost way more than cable. Cable - $40/m unlimited service, ADSL $100/m for limited downloads. Plus you can't have ADSL on continously. Just thought I would point this out incase anyone was thinking about switching their line over. Best Regards KEITH

It only takes one person to effect change sometimes..as we have all heard its the "squeaky wheel" that gets the grease..<g> One small step for Canadian traders, one giant step for....enough of cliches.. I look forward to the day when we have, $9.95 a trade, am I unrealistically dreaming? LOL ze gyp
