I used EasyStreet as my ISP for many years - great support AND they 
don't hang up on you if you mention "linux" when you are communicating 
with their support team.  They do provide DSL static IP support through 
your phone carrier.  Seems to me that the cost was about $100/mo.  My 
phone carrier (Verizon) made me get a "business" account in order to get 
the static IP (after all, if you are not a business, why would you need 
one?)  I use dynamic DNS now, WAY cheaper.
