I sent in requests for more info to 3 DSL providers that said they
have DSL available for the 372 exchange in Lansing: Atlantech.net,
psn.net, and velotel.com.  Should know something back from them in
24-48 hrs (according to their websites).  Since I'm a fair distance
from the CO (15,000 ft) I may not get much in the way of bandwidth
though, probably 400k at the most.  I might even get stuck with
IDSL (144k/144k) which is more expensive per-kbps... =(
