1. Here's how I would do it...
I googled "list of isps" and like the first return was:
http://www.thelist.com/areacode.html

Go there, click on your area code and get the list to narrow it down.

Check out the ones in your area to see if they have a LOCAL dial up phone number. (not just area code)

Of THOSE, check out their pricing plans to see which ones are acceptable.

Of THOSE, go to http://groups.google.com and one at a time, search for the names of the ISPs on your list to see what people's specific experiences...

Here in South Jersey, for example, the best dialup ISP is snip.net. They're a local outfit, and give excellent customer service - no number of "I'm in Arkansas and I love Earthlink" advice will help you with the local mom and pops... That's why you need to search the groups.
