Question for you peoplez

Hi all,I have a question about internet. I live in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and I have the Qwest 256kb internet. Basically, it takes a long time to download demos from Xbox Live. Games actually play ok, but downloading stuff takes a loooong time. I'm looking for a new internet provider, and I was wonder if there are any people out there that live around my area that could suggest some other, faster internet providers. I know Comcast is available here, but I don't want to spend that much a month. I know Qwest offers a 1.5mb speed, but that is also a little more than I would like to spend.   Thanks in advance!
