+ Have one of the better deals around IMHO, phone (VoIP) and internet (Full speed both ways ADSL2) for $69 a month + $1 per Gig traffic.

+Pluses;  
+ VoIP includes all the features that other phone providers charge extra for. lets you redirect voicemail to email, block anonymous calls, etc.  
+ They automatically drop calls with invalid ANI, no more Australian Holiday Scams from "0000"  
+Minuses;  
+ International bandwidth is very bad at the moment, almost unusable once all the "90G free" leeches get on at night. It wasn't so bad last year though and hopefully they'll sort out a better connection soon.

  Bah.. I've had days when I can't stay connected for more than two minutes at a time, times when I'm still connected but can't even ping the [PPP] peer, news-server weirdness (a bunch of the binaries newsgroups have suddenly gone from 800 msgs a day to 150, and 2/3 of those are missing messages! Argh!) 
  
  [OTOH] they're cheap. I guess I can live with it :)
