I've tried INFOCOMM and wasn't very happy.  That was a few months ago
wo they may have their act together now.

I've heard that Erol's is pretty cheap and WAS pretty good.  Lately
I've been hearing about slow servers and busy signals.  I imagine this
is due to rapid subscriber growth in response to their low prices.
Erol's MIGHT be a good choice if they use some of their income to
increase their service capability.

I'm currently with Smart Net and like it.  The price is slightly
higher than Erol's, about middle fo the road as far as prices go these
days, but significanlty less than AOL.

Good luck,
Bill
