frame relay prices vary -- one customer is on a 512 and pays $350 for
the circuit in the same CO -- ADSL is not charged extra -- we have some
hardware at the office which I plan to install at home in September (maybe)..

ISDN varies by phone co, in TN it's $35 for installation $35 per
mo with Southern Bell for 2x64k channels.  Here in FL, it's $250 installation
and $52 per mo for 2x64 channels (2B and 1D)

ISDN is the best price considering the bandwidth
