Ok SouthWest Bell has reduced their installation fee from $500+ to $78.60 
if you contract with them for two years.

Here is the deal 
Install for 78.60 with a two year contract and pay $57.&0 /mo with 
unlimited calls.  Thats a full 2B+D or BRI service.   OR

Install for $327.60 with a one year contract (other prices the same)

Measured service is available for 
1. $26.90 /mo = 15 minutes of local calling + 0.25/min there after or
2. $36.90 /mo = 60 minutes of local calling + 0.15/min there after or
3. $41.90 /mo =120 minutes of local calling + 0.10/min there after.

All phone lines into a house must be the same rate of service..  In other 
words you cannot have one unlimited and one measured service in the same 
house ISDN or not.

These prices were quoted for my Round Rock residence..

The "sale" will be from 10/1 thru 11/30...

OK things are looking better,  Now I need to look for a single box that

1. Supports my two analog internal telephone lines.
2. Gives me a data connection via the ISDN
3. Does not burst my wallet in the short term.

I would be interested in comments on :

1. The price of a TA or other equipment to provide the above.
2. Start up headaches that I could be in for.
3. Is there any internet providers that have reasonable prices for an 
intermittant connection via ISDN??

That should start the discussion off, let's here from you...
