There are a few of us still online here, only wonder for how much longer

Me too! I'm waiting for my EL account to be set up on my second line. Going from "ADSL" 384/384 -> 1.5/384! I hope my EL modem get here before my Flashcom line dies.

I still have my service. I am not transitioning because I am moving at the end of the month. Does anybody know if we will have to return the modem to Covad?

I moved. told "flashcom" to just disconnect my line like they keep threatening.

I have Cable modem now.. and have > 180k/s Napster downloads..!!! alot better than DSL.
