    Is the I-net dial-up account of $6.95/ month based on only a month-to-
    month renewal?

    Questions: Is cablenet the same thing as one's local cable TV's cable
    modem system?

    Isn't DSL still very expensive?  Doesn't the ISP offering DSL service
    charge $60 to $80 per month?  Plus, in addition, doesn't the local
    phone company charge big fees for DSL phone service?

    IMHO, a $10/month ISP dial-up connection system will be around for a
    long time.    Comments?
