Subject: broadband peril


I am appealing to the list in hopes they may have information to eliminate
my modem woes.  Seems USwest can't decide if I am eligable for DSL (depends
on who I talk to, different answer every time).  Cox@home is unavailable.
All that is left is sprint broadband (right??).  now I know this topic has
come up in the past, however I have one simple question.  In contrast to a
56K dialup, is sprint broadband worth the cash??  Thanks for taking the time
to read my message.
