Qwest DSL is another option (www.qwest.net). You'll need a valid phone 
number to prequalify on their website though. If you call them they 
*might* be able to do it by address.

If the speeds you want/require are not available in your area and you 
have a little extra cash wireless is a great alternative - check out 
www.SimplyBits.com and www.DakotaCom.net.
