Howdy,
We just moved to this totally amazing house in Bahama last week, and the
only drawback so far has been the lack of high speed internet access. Going
from RoadRunner to a 56k dialup with Earthlink that really connects at 26.8
is a drag.
Is anyone using ISDN anymore? Are there any good ISPs for ISDN? Earthlink
limits the hours for ISDN to 100 or 150/month and that isn't going to work
for me. I guess satellite is still an option, but the initial investment is
pretty steep and Verizion is promising DSL out here in the near future so it
seems a bit wasteful to spend $700 on satellite equipment.
Here's a few photos of the new house for the curious:

If I had to live with a slow connection it would still be worth it, but if I
can find a better connectivity solution that would be great.
Thanks,
Robert
