4/14 Are there any reputable ISPs that have a pre-payment plan,
e.g. you pay for a year in advance and in exchange, get a
dicounted rate?
\_ isn't 'reputable ISP' some kind of oxymoron?
\_ the experience of most of my friends is that they go
for such a plan as the service is good at the outset,
and in a few months it's gone to pot and they're screwed
for the rest of the year or whatnot. good luck in your
quest to find a decent isp.
\_ FWIW, I know people who have had good experiences with http://rahul.net
and http://idiom.com. If you want cheap, http://autobahn.org has nice student
discounts.
\_ Ricochet has a $299 prepay plan or monthly 34.95 plan. - tpc
\_ Stillpushing the Ricochet crap? They pay you?
\_ I'm sorry, that is too expensive to justify going wireless.
Ricochet should die, just like ISDN. High price, low demand.
GET IT???!?!?? Take a business class.
\_ I have a Ricochet and love it. Where else can you get
24x7 connectivity (much less *portable* connectivity)
for $25/month? I leave the thing connected for days
at a time without needing a second phone line ($15 or so
right there), check email from coffeeshops,
and hardly ever use dialups any more even from home.
Ricochet *rules*. --phr
\_ as if. laptops are getting way cheap; handhelds are booming
the market for Ricochet is growing wildly, both for
vertical and consumer applications
\_ Oh puleeze, keep the hype off the motd. vertical apps?
Are you a palmpilot or ricochet salesdrone? |
