For those intrested:
"With Ultra lite there will be no data charges or hourly restrictions on
your
account - it's simply a flat rate account."

"You will be able to download data at a speed of 256Kbps, that's much faster
than a standard modem."
"For only $49.95 per month you can access high-speed flat rate internet by
getting an Ultra lite account - that's a little more spend for alot more
speed"

They are waving the installation costs for the first 1000 people (the email
was recieved Thursday last week so if you haven't signed up by now you are
probably out of luck)

Only thing that gets me is that you are still limited to 33.6K upstream and
you tie up a phone line while you are on. Still at 50$ it's almost worth it
for the flat rate. Also funny how this works out to be the 600Meg account
(with a second line) which I expect most xDSL subs are.
