Vicki,

I would be a little hesitant about committing myself
for a full year to a service.  If they are confident of
their service they might offer a one month trial period
for say $25 - why don't you ask them and find out.

Have you checked out www.dingoblue.com.au?

Its a little like insurance, pay tv etc .. You can pay
for a full year in advance, but it just locks you in
if you expect the market price to fall.
