<div>I can chime in on Speakeasy too - we use (and abuse) a single DSL and VoIP line at work - the only shortcoming I've ever had is that calls cut out sometimes if we are moving lots of data over the DSL at the same time...I think it is more of a bandwidth issue than a Speakeasy one - and like Judy said - SO NICE!!!! I'd recommend them hands down.</div> <div> </div> <div>cheers,</div> <div>G<BR><BR><B><I>"judy b." <onze@speakeasy.net></I></B> wrote:</div> <BLOCKQUOTE class=replbq style="PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #1010ff 2px solid">From: judy b. <onze@speakeasy.net><BR>Date: Fri, 10 Feb 2006 13:40:39 -0800<BR>To: Amandeep Jawa <deep@worker-bee.com><BR>CC: Deep's Social <social@deeptrouble.com><BR>Subject: Re: SOCIAL: ISP recommendations?<BR><BR>I heartily second Speakeasy.
