Well I am with World-net, I find that I can get a full 16Kb/sec (128kB/sec)
any time of the day, so it doesn't appear to be running out of bandwidth.
Remember Jetstart is only 128k, not 8Mbit like jetstream, therefore it is
not going to suck the life out of smaller isp's. Also I find World-net easy
to deal with, and very helpful with more advanced config requirements.

I think my main concern with the ISP for Jetstart would have to be how much
bandwidth the ISP has. I would guess xtra would probably be quite well off
in the category considering there relationship with Telecom, and telecoms
relationship with Netgate....

Just my 2 cents worth

Go with World Net - no data cap and $5/month cheaper.
