| Actually, they deleted this plan a few weeks ago. I was going to sign my dad up for it, but when I went to the site to place the order, it had mysteriously disappeared.
I posted about it here: »The 1.5 Mbps $35 plan is gone
Now magically that plan is back. |

Seattle, WA | I had that plan for 20 bucks as a retention deal. I ended up canceling. |

Tampa Bay | Twenty bucks? Man, that's cheaper than I'm paying for my iSpot. |

Wasn't their first 'entry' plan $30 about 6 months ago? |

In my area, it was $30.00 for what they claimed to be 3Mbps down and .5Mbps up (about 2 years ago).
Over a year ago I added a mobile unit to my plan so both are supposedly unlimited speed down and 1Mbps up for a total of $55.00 monthly
However, unless conditions are ideal, my down speed is regularly about 1.1 Mbps down, although it is 1.2Mbps up at home.
Being so close to a major university, and so far from a tower, makes a difference (my mobile unit has the same speed at home, but can exceed 12Mbps in some areas of town).
I would not pay $35.00 per month for only one modem with that low of a maximum speed (with interference from dozens of wifi, wimax, and cell units nearby, I would probably only receive 0.15Mbps - barely enough for voip) |
