Check out http://www.thelist.com.  Thousands listed all over the country.

Interesting.  When I was looking for a new provider I emailed specific
questions to Earthlink and received a canned blurb having nothing to do
with what I asked.  When I emailed again, the sales droid responded with,
in effect, "what you see is what you get."  If it hadn't been too much
trouble I would have bundled up the whole email exchange and sent it to
the Earthlink president, who I'm sure would have found it quite
enlightening.  Shame when you get lousy service from a "thriving" new
company.
