Kevin, Cox offers business cable here too, but, at least when we tried it, even having an incoming mail server will get you turned off.

Cox offers static IP - small business setup, about $70/month in Missouri/ NW Arkansas. Additional statics are $15 monthly, IIRC. In contrast, standard "express" package for homes is $24.95, DHCP, and about 10-20% of the "biz" bandwidth....
