Cheaper SDSL ?

[elderdog]

Wanted to tag this on to the end of a thread on SDSL that was knocking around a while ago but just cant find it .....

Had a call from Leap (?) trying to sell SDSL. So far as I could determine rack rate for 1Meg full duplex with no data limit was 80/month.

Limited at present to Crown Alley & Beggars Bush exchanges. Seems there is some trial at these two locations.

Also offered higher data rates

Not really my cup of tea so I didnt try to go into any details with the Rep_person
