Do you know about The List?

http://thelist.internet.com/

Don't know if there are other similar sites, but I tell my clients to 
search this one by area code for ISPs with local point-of-presence, 
and then compare features and service, look at some of their hosted 
sites (they might even have a list), and even email some of their 
subscribers.

Telnet access is rare AFAIK, if you mean access to the ISP's server. 
Last I had telnet access to a commercial ISP was limited to account 
admin -- not to manipulate files of my server space, and definitely 
not to execute Perl scripts -- and even the account admin was 
recently converted to a web-based system.

I recall a friend suffering when she left her job at an ISP, and no 
longer had root access, which did allow her full use of telnet ;-(

But you might get lucky looking through the List, above. Maybe you 
just meant telnet access to a machine somewhere that you already have 
permissions for...

Good luck!
