I would seriously consider your long distance 'phone carrier.
Many of them have decent POPs with national coverage. And
it would include a (backup) e-mail account. Most offer very
good rates if they're also handling your long distance.

I wouldn't consider any of 'em for hosting (or a shell!).
But for straight dial-up, they'll probably do a decent
job.
