I recently saw a commercial of netzero-high speed access. Have any of you guys used this internet access. I currently have a cable modem. Netzero seems like an interesting alternative to dsl or cable maybe. How are downloads for netzero hi speed access. Any comments, who has used this?

Net Zero is most likely just ordinary 56k dial-up with a caching server at the ISP's end, or caching software included with the Net Zero dial-up software. No competition to a good cable or dsl connection. Don't bother getting it unless your cable or dsl is already slower than dial-up is anyways. (Net Zero can't offer faster download speeds than normal dial-up, only faster browsing, and that's no guarentee).
