Ken, if you have good access to a cell tower, you
might try the Sprint or 
Cingular internet card.  I have tried one and am going
to it full time, 
mainly because we travel so much.  The card fits
directly in a lap top or a 
router is also available.  With a good connection it
compares to Cox high 
speed, with a poor connection it compares to dialup.
