To those who are in ClearWire range: I switched to it from DSL and have been very happy ever since. Never down, avg 1.2 dwn, .5 up.
I have a custom made battery for the modem and can move around in WA with wireless access.
It costs $42/mo.

  Yeah, you're one of the lucky few.
  It happens.

    I use a premium cable service from Time Warner in Austin, Texas where 
    service has been very reliable with adequate customer support. Upload 
    speeds (tested at www.speakeasy.net ) to Chicago, Dallas and NY average 
    7200 Down - 950 Up. When I instituted service, I insisted that the 
    company test its drop lines from the pole all the way to my router to 
    check for signal "leaks"; as a result, they replaced their old drop 
    with noticeable improvement. I previously used a combo of DSL and 
    Cable with a HotBrick router that balanced the load between the two and 
    employed a instant fall over feature in case one line suffered an 
    outage. Gave up this dual line arrangement because cable has proved so 
    unexpectedly reliable. None the less, I check my speed regularly at 
    peak usage times.
