IMHO, companies like Verizon will always be able to offer the most
bandwidth for your buck because they are an ILEC.  Other smaller
Internet providers will have to buy their backbone from Verizon or
someone who is their competition.  

I live in the North Hills and I have Nauticom.  At 3mb down and 512Kb
out, it costs something like $40/month.  It's not too bad.  In the last
few months, I heard the Verizon will be offering fiber to the home
service at 30Mb down 3Mb up for around $50.  I don't know if that is
true (I can't get Verizon here), but if it is, sign me up! :D
