Does it *have* to be DSL?  Will other forms of broadband access work?  

I'm not in Pittsburgh anymore, but I don't think companies charge different 
amounts in different parts of the country.  If they do, I would expect where I 
am now to be more expensive (DC, everything's more expensive here).

I'm paying $30/mo for 10mbit from RCN (after 6mo it goes to $40, I think) 
which AFAIK is a lot faster than DSL can do (it's still limited to 768k, 
right?).  Comcast was $25 for first 6mo then $55, I think (also 10mbit).  Of 
course they offer slower speeds for less, and if you own a TV and want cable 
too, they both lower the total price too.
