Cable modem or DSL?

I currently have a cable modem with Adelphia Cable (soon to be Comcast, I believe).

I am moving into a new home soon, and was on the phone with Verizon today telling them about my move and to transfer my phone service to the new address.

They informed me that I can get their "fast" DSL service for $29.95 / month at speeds "up to" 3.0 Mbps.

With Comcast, I can allegedly get speeds "up to" 6.0 Mbps.

I ran a modem speed test with my current connection, and am connecting at about the 1.5 to 1.6 Mbps range.

Is DSL really as fast as a cable modem?

Waddya think I should do?
