Usually not.  Prey that some third party comes in and saves the day.
Perhaps just go get cable, i think its a better deal for the bandwidth
you get anyhnow.

DSL is good only if you really need statics, but thats what a colocation
box is really for. ;)  Even then, as soon as the biz services start up,
there might be a decent (under 100$/mo perhaps) way to get static ip's
on cable.
