Who's got the cable franchise there? I'd check with them. > So does anyone know what's available in the area?

Sprint closed that service here in Tucson, and probably elsewhere...they got FCC permission to use that frequency band for cellular services and so, dropped internet service like a hot rock. Qwest's DSL so-called 'service' here in Tucson sucks.
