That should get you off to a good start, but the consolidated "single vendor" solutions probably aren't going to do much for you.
Consolidating phone, internet,satellite TV
I know there are many of you guys and gals who are much mre "informed" on this stuff, so I would like some suggestions on consolidating and lowering costs. Currently I have a Sprint cel phone $ $42/month, two SW Bell phone lines at the house @72/month, Dish TV at $54/month, and internet dial-up at $20/month. That's $188/month! I know there are package plans available, but not sure what I need. One limiting factor is that there is no calbe available where we live. We would like two cel phones, no "land-lines", and faster internet access for both a MAC and PC, and an equivalent TV package. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

One thing to watch during your search is advertised prices vs. fully loaded prices. I got a package deal from Verizon that included a land-line with Unlimited Local and Long-distance, and a DSL line. It was advertised as $79.95 a month. Once they add in all of there taxes and fees, the bill comes to $108.
SBC will consolidate all these items- in the city. I doubt they have that capability in your location. People that I know that have done this, however, end up with Dish satellite service. I am not impressed with that service.
I recently gave up my $20/month dial-up for high speed wireless access($40/month)- being out in the sticks too. Frontier Broadband is out of Granbury. The money you save removing the two land lines is well worth it.
So while I have not consolidated services (because I can't out here), I at least have 'modern' services.
