Can either of you guys give me info and where I could where to purchase 
something of this sort. I would love to get a truly high speed data 
connection. This seems liek a very economical choice. (I believe it costs 
over a $1000US to get a T1 line from the telco, and that is monthly cost 
o!)
Thanks for any info in advance!
