It looks like Sonic.net is available in the area we'll be moving to, and they 
offer static IP addresses for a pretty competitive rate; more expensive than 
AT&T but significantly cheaper than other providers I've seen.  Their most 
basic static IP account includes 4 static IP addresses, though, and since I 
have a router, I can't imagine what I would ever do with more than one.

AT&T's reliability and uptime has been remarkable, but support stinks (I'm 
always entirely on my own when it comes to networking questions and so on).  
I am, however, pretty disturbed by some of their business practices, and 
would rather not give them my money if I can avoid it.
