I live just across the river from St. Louis. Fortunantly we have Charter cable, so we are able to get broadband. I'm assuming that you live in the ShowMe State and not the Land of Lincoln. For whatever reason, it seems that they are much slower rolling out broadband on that side of the river. In recent months there has been a couple of companies start up that are offering wireless broadband.
As far as phone companies, we have Ameritech. I use my cell phone (Cingular) for all my long distance calls since I have free LD. Plus, most of MO and Southern IL are covered as local calls with Cingular.
