Expensive packages. Especially, the CPE is 18K ~US$300. The upfront payment is too much.

It could be processing fees for the contract and any equipment they might proivde with that. People in Pakistan might call it upfront payment but they seem to be connection charges which are normall, well at least here in Australia.

I think you may be right. Like in the US you have to pay for connection charges, but then the monthly payments.
Chief1 its kinda like installation charges.
But they are still a long way away from spreading their network of cable/dsl in major cities. So far they are only available in Lahore. Which kinda sucks as i hate having worldcall ....
