Metronet (214-705-2901, or mail info@metronet.com, or call voice at
705-2900) offers what you want for $150/month.  Not for the casual user,
I guess.  I think they expect such an account to keep a modem busy
hundreds of hours per month, in which case it's cheap.  Connect your
local network of two dozen workstations through them.  Maybe if enough
people asked them for an inexpensive alternative, like 20 hours/month
max....
