Yes, I looked and saw that.  Still, $65 is better than the $80 it used 
to be.  I do have to laugh, however.  The last time I looked, the cost 
for a bock of 16K addresses (the smallest you can get) directly was 
$2500 per year.  Thats about $0.16 each per year--and they want $15.00 
more per month.  And if you stay with dhcp you still consume one 
address. Oh well.
