Hi Brian, My primary dial-up account is Earthlink, but when I'm travelling (asia and australia) I've found the best service (price & availability of dial-up numbers) is...gulp...AOL, believe it or not. http://intlaccess.web.aol.com/ for costs and access #'s. I believe AT&T globalnet is also good for int'l travelers but have no experience with them.
