The 3Mbps connection can be had for $17.99/month with a 1-year contract
($34.99 after the year is up, unless you sign up again with the
then-current offer).  If you don't want a contract, it's $39.99 for the
month-to-month.
	The 6Mbps connection is not as good a deal as you might get from
Comcast... it is a one-year contract, with $49.99/month for the first 6
months and $64.99/month thereafter.  Without a contract, it's
$69.99/month.  Certainly, Comcast is cheaper, even if you don't have cable
TV, but it's not THAT much cheaper and depending on your preferences
and/or area where you live, you may prefer one over the other.

The various plan details can be viewed at:

Hope this helps!
