For the record, we paid at&stinks over $400/yr for landlines and cell phones for almost a decade, and I still don't have broadband because they are too d*** cheap to upgrade our copper lines. It takes a Canadian to come in and start his own ISP using microwave antennas to towers all around town to provide usable and decent internet service to the town of Pahrump. I have lived in that cruddy town since 1996 and last year we finally got real Internet.
