I see that only applies to the dear option.
Certainly not my $45 option.

401004 2005-11-01 19:05:00 I see that only applies to the dear option.
Certainly not my $45 option.

Are there any discounts at all on the cheaper options?
For the price I'm paying for broadband (over the 'phone line) now I was up until a few months ago paying for wireless (256k 2gb limit). So when it became available here, I reasoned for the same price (was 69.95) I might as well get their good service.
Cicero, I see in the back page of the latest PC World, WorldNet are advertising some improved prices and ADSL users change for free.
I can see why xtra brought mine down, although WorldNet would give 4GB's more than xtra are currently.
Not too sure whether I could change ISP's, just yet without incurring a penalty as I signed a contract when I got wireless, which was a part of Project Probe and otherwise would have cost over a $100 / month (I wouldn't have bothered), just stuck with my satellite serviice.
