I have Comcast Business in San Jose, CA.  It is $199 per month with 6
IP's.  However, they had a $99 offer for the first 2 year contract.  I
have had great support and service with the Business class service.
Unfortunately I can't get the "Triple-Play" bundles this way.  If you
get Business TV, you pay more and get less than residential.
Apparently they haven't figured out the SOHO market yet.
