Friends

There is an e-mail going around in my country with the statement that internet speed connections( ranging from from 156 to 512 Kbp/s ) is worldwide possible using the conventional line, and in our country if you need a fast internet connection you have to buy an ADLS Modem ( about 100,00 US$ ) and pay an extra fee of 20 - 100 US$ for the connection plus a 10-30,00 US$ for the provider per month.( the price of the "special line" and the provider´s price varies depending on the speed) 
My question is:You, who live ouside Brasil , and have a fast internet needor do not need special modem and rates?
All included in the telephone´s monthly bill.
It is a steal!
My telephone bills are killing me!!! Help!

cheers

Krishtar
