I'm on Rogers too, but I don't know which "edition" I'm on, since they
recently started offering "extreme" and "express" versions of the
service. Funny thing is, they both cost $44.95/month, bu extreme
offers 5 Mb, while express is 3 Mb (same as istop, it seems). Any way
for me to tell which version I'm on?

I really like the look of istop, because of their static IP. But
again, because it's DSL, I don't know what kind of service to expect,
because it depends on distance to the central Bell station, right? Any
thoughts on that?
