    My Comcast cable/internet is $117 month. Don't have a landline so pay $60/month for cell.

    1080i really isnt much different than 720p-which is what most cable companies have. The real differences come from i (interlaced) vs p ( progressive).

    Interlaced uses half the pixels and rapidly switches between the other half, so in a way you are really only getting half the actual resolution.
    Progressive fills in all the pixels giving a sharper image, especially on fast moving images.

    If timewarner had 720i, then 1080i would be much better.

    Its a whole bank of mail boxes shared with several houses and some are elderly retired folks that might need their mail/meds. So its also my good deed for the winter. Hopefully it helps others out as well. Shouldn't take but 1/2 hour or so. My son and I are expecting packages. Plus my wife's prescripts are due early next week. Otherwise, I'd just stop down to the PO once a week.

    If that includes a DVR its a really good rate. At this point I couldnt get by without the DVR as I almost never watch live TV. My rate also had the Expanded Digital package.

    Overall big company Comcast has better rates than the much smaller company Metrocast but their service seems to be not as good-at least that has been my experience. YMMV

    What do you have for cell service? Data included in that and if so what limits? My cell service at home is not good at all. Its better than it use to be but still not great

    We could have use 18-24", we're headed to another drought year. I'll be happy with the 5-7 they claim, I predict 2. Today I'm onto cleaning the stove and snapping some pic's for Smokey. Finally done with the Ski Doo restorations, time to install the truck onto the new frame and running gear. About the time the new engine gets here I'll take the PU off the road and get serious.

    Hey Smokey, I'm down to 117/63. Months ago, I had suddenly found my way up into the "go to hospital now zone". I had to stop with the three cups of Italian Roast Expresso. Not as much gets done now, but hey, I don't get excited about it any more either.;)

    I'd say it's a P-38 after seeing the control panel, but I could be totally wrong. No idea on age, though. I don't think they make them any more.

    It looks to be a P series but no auto ignite or room/stove temp modes, so its an older one. Lousyweather might have a better cue to the model.
