All good points to look into, but most of what you relayed is specific to 
the ISPs in question. But like you found, when it comes to cable, you 
don't get a choice of ISP.

I think the key ones to point out are ISP dependant (because they might 
cause other confusion) are the email limits, and the need of a contract.

Near me, Cablevision does the cable. They offer two price levels. $50 a 
month with no contract, $30 a month with a one year contract (and bundled 
with another $30 a month for voice sevice... so really $60 a month for 
one year for two different services added to your cable TV).

Verizon DSL is $30 a month, no contract. They don't offer any kind of a 
contract at all, and so no discounts are available for contracting 
(although they will knock $5.00 off if you have the Verizon Freedom phone 
package).

Covad offers DSL for various prices, all require at least a 1 year 
contract (cheaper if you do a 2 year). Speakeasy offers various prices, 
highest price is with no contract, lower prices the longer your contract 
is (up to a 3 year contract).


So these points will all be different based on what ISP you choose. So it 
is important to know these points exist, because they are all things that 
should be looked into when picking an ISP.
