Oh...yeah, that's complete bs! There's a local company that does 6mb for 35 but I think that's a bundle price with phone service also, so its actually more like 50 something. I almost asked this same question a few weeks ago...so I hope someone has something we don't know about. I'm not home much, but need something cheap and reliable because phone connection ***** at my house for some reason. $50+ just is just too much considering how little I would actually use it.
