Speakeasy, one of the more highly regarded and established DSL players has rolled out a new package that eliminates the need for a residential phone line from the regional Bell companies here in the USA.
While they may not be the first to do this, they are continuing to be a company to watch. Consistently they offer services that go against the grain of what the DSL or Cable companies currently offer. For example, they encourage open use of hot spots versus having their subscribers lock down access.
While the first offering is limited to 1.5 megabit connections, you can expect them to over time increase the speeds.
Kudos to the folks running Speakeasy who still understand that the Internet is not about control of the user, but the environment to create new and better technologies to benefit the mankind.
