    Comcast in Etown, hits us for $53 for cable TV (expanded basic) and 6mbps Internet at $57, total about $110 a month.

    I'm looking for bundles, that would do TV, internet, and phone all in one. Don't want a dish, so right now, can't seem to find a plan that fits. Closest thing I've found is Windstream offering for $54 a month, Local and long distance phone, and 6 mbps internet as a mini-bundle. But, the internet comes in over the phone line, and I'm just not sure how good that works these days.

    Do you all have internet via phone line or cable, and which do you think works best, most convient, reliable etc.

    I know of several folks who have that bundle and love it. The internet service is fine according to them and they are pretty picky people. We have it that way here at the office with windstream and it works well. Of course from the IT closet I get my connection along Cat 5e cable.

    I don't need a home phone since I have a cell. I'm going to check into Direct TV since I'm hearing good things about them compared to Dish.
