Well, it seems my house move is going to take me beyond the reach of ADSL and cable. It's a lovely rural location, but BT's broadband checker says it's out of reach and a quick go on multimap shows it's 12km from the nearest significant village, so even if they manage to improve ADSL technology it'll be some time before I can have it.

So, the hunt is on for a quality ISP that will give me unmetered dial-up internet for a flat monthly fee. I'm not remotely interested in email addys or webspace, just the 'net access. Any ideas? And is it worth considering ISDN as a halfway house to broadband? My home computer is a G3 iMac with a built-in v90 modem that I never thought I'd need again!
