Actually, my girlfriend lives with her aunt and uncle til she finished
school, and they have exactly the setup you are pondering. to be blunt, they
have Dish network for TV and they have quest for phone and DSL and i beleive
they have the package you are looking at. pricing sounds familiar. i did the
self install for em with the kit they got, and they love it. far as i can
tell, the speeds are really good and the service is really good. they dont
live to far from you either, they are in davenport so its local. if you were
thinking of going that way, id recommend it, or atleast be one vote in favor
of it. i beleive they have the 1.5 mb service. if you are willing to pay for
the 7mb service, do so. you wont be disappointed.
