Iv'e been using demon adsl for about 8 months
maybe unlike pipex there is a =A350 setup fee
and its =A324.99 a month
there a good isp and have been in the isp market long before bt
it offers a 512kbs down and 256kbs up  at this price but if you realy want
thay can fit upto an 8mbs conection but its out of my price at present
you get unlimited pop3 email     whatever-you-want@<your-domain>.demon.co.u=
k
seting up in linux souldent be too bad
im using an alcatel speedtuch router/adsl modem from www.dslsource.co.uk
works fine

better than a dial up
ive used a number of isp's before but demon have the best service
