If you are working at home, is the company picking up at least part of the tab? If they aren't, you may be able to claim it on your taxes.

Also, check to see if a DSL line might give you a better price vs cable, or the other way around.

It is worth it to drop the thrity bucks on a tax guide book, and READ it, if youare going to prepair yourself. Unless you have really basic taxes, you will pay for the book. And then, you might want to go to an indipendent tax prepairer- they usually want to find you more stuff.
