Yo John!

My local cable company, Bend Cable, gives out static IP with RoadRunner
service.

I also know several folks on @Home in Fremont, CA, that have static
IP addresses.

Cable modem subscribers normally are not dynamically assigned IPs like
dialups.  Besides, they are advertised as a constant connection, and a lot
of people use it as such.

All of the cable modem subscribers I know have dynamic IPs assigned by
DHCP.  A suitably aggressive DHCP client can usually keep the lease
renewed so the IP doesn't change, but they are most certainly not
static IP addresses.
