Service has been up 99.9% of the time, with the odd slow down and interruptions but other than a few planned ones (network upgrade) most where caused by the Bell system of which Teksavvy is a wholesale buyer.
Drawbacks: The only way to get a full newsserver was to get a fixed IP ($5.00) and that access system is throttled to 1Mb/sec to cut down on heavy downloaders. Considering that full access to a 3rd party NS is around $10 bucks I look at this as a sort of fair compromise that also provides me with a fixed IP should I ever need to use it.
The system has a rolling limit of 200GB/month. As far as I can tell, I have never approached this limit and I do get the occasional large file(s). So, for this user (*3) the limit is not an issue.
Tech service (for the few times I needed them) is excellent, *calls back* in a short time if busy and very knowledgable. Kudos to them.
For on-line gaming, the ISP provides with very good connectivity, with latency under 100ms to most connected servers.
*updated, reviewed and corrected this review now, after 2 years on being with Teksavvy and must say that the only changes are in the updated speeds and limits. All in all, they rulez! 
-- Update, Dec 2009. What was written above stands. While I am currently on MTS, my family back home still uses this great company for DSL. So far, no problems to be reported.
