As I'll be in the USA for an internship from october on, I'm now looking into the necessities of life:
Internet, and mobile phone

Is there some ISP that is reliable, cheap, and userfriendly, especially in the Boston bay area? Might have to put up with phone dial-up for those months, but still...

And are there some GSM mobile nets up there? Don't want to get a new mobile just for it...

Thanks in advance

T-Mobile has a GSM network in the Boston area, you should be covered. I'm not sure how good AT&T's coverage is.

As for cheap ISPs, look around, there should be $10 dial-up companies a plenty.
