I signed up with TDS this summer for their telephone/DSL internet/Dish satellite deal. Opening monthly price was about $89 in year one, $15 more in year two. I added $5 monthly to upgrade to Dish's America's Top 200 so I could get NESN and another $6 for DVR service. So the total now is about $110 per month.

The telephone service includes only 30 minutes of long distance calling per month. This is fine with us - we use our cell phones for most long distance calls anyway.

The DSL service is 5MB which is plenty fast enough for our needs.

There is a two year commitment but we are permitted to pause services when we shut down the lake house for the winter.

Oh - and TDS threw in an HP laptop for 99 cents as part of the deal.

I'm happy.
