[UFO Chicago] Speakeasy questions

Well, my dialup service just went down the tubes (old
account from a previous job), and I'm looking at Speakeasy
for service.

A few questions:

Is RADSL worth it?  I don't really plan on running any sort
of fancy services, other than remote email for myself, and
SSH'ing into my home systems.  However, a static IP would
be nice.  Also, how often does the IP address change if you
go the dynamic route?

What sort of hardware do they sell you?  Modem? Router? 
Can you supply your own hardware, or do you have to use
theirs?  

The nifty comparison page,
(http://www.speakeasy.net/main.php?page=res_allpricing)
implies that there is port/protocol blocking on all
packages except the "SysAdmin" package.  Is this actually
true?  Are there any other substatial differences between
the packages, or are they just marketing things?

TIA,

--Jesse
