There are some areas that can get DSL.  Like Ken said, get a neighbor's 
number, or your own and check QWest's WWW page.  I happen to have two 
whammys against me.  I live in a new neighborhood, that's about 100ft (or 
so) over the limit, and Qwest decided to run fiber into my 
neighborhood.  So, basically, I'm SOL.

Another option that will become available in Longmont in the next month or 
so is Sprint Broadband.  According to Tom Valaika at 
http://www.coloradodsl.com, Sprint is just waiting for FCC approval to turn 
on the Longmont towers...
