how many people here are on dialup? for anyone still debating the switch in the usa, i have found that it paid for itself. i have not owned a land line in years. i own an iphone. period. i am on the cheapest plan with that since I use email to stay in contact with over 95% of the people I know. I also threw away my fax machine.years ago. i use the free faxzero online instead. I don't need to add to my broadband cable bill with entertainment because I get all the dvds I need free from the 3 libraries I use, setting up my holds online. so i need no tv other than as a monitor. i can also stream media on my macbook for further entertainment or education, including podcasts. both my husband and i can also be online at the same time. i can also carry my macbook all over my home and still be online, including outside. This is also tax deductible because we use it for work. All this for $45 a month. Oh, and I need to use a stamp once or twice a month now since I handle all my mail online. I realize those of you not in the usa do not have these ideal cirecumstances necessarily but it is hard for me to understand why anyone in the usa thinks dialup is a bargain.
