I found a 768/384 service with a static IP for under $50/mo. I'm about 9000
feet from the CO. We'll see how the order process goes. Thanks for all the
feedback. Someone had said that @home told them their service wasn't
available in Broomfield. They told me it definitely was. I'm pretty much
on the border of Broomfield and Westminster.
