I know Starbucks (specifically the one on Sixth & Congress), much as I
hate to recommend them for anything, has a couple dialup lines for people
to use with their laptops. You might check out Mojo's Daily Grind first, I
know you can plug in computers, but I don't know if they have lines
available. Besides, its cheaper and much more enjoyable.

My sympathies on your house!
