    Thats about the going rate in my part of florida. I personaly have cox cable for my internet at $35 for 1500kbps (200KB/sec).

    As far as if your plan is good for you, you have to decide that. Are you here asking because you feel your speed is too slow? Then you should look at the other plans offered in your area. if you are thinking of watching movies at hulu.com or uploading large video files to youtube you may want to go a good bit higher.

    Hope this helps.
