hi
there's an isp that is local to buffalo NY called "localnet" that has
lots of access numbers nation wide, and they are only $9.95 a month.
when i went traveling last year to Wisconsin i checked their access
numbers and they had them for the place i was going to.
perhaps this is something to look into.
