I'm currently on NZ Wireless, and it's working well for me.
$70+GST per month
256kbit intl, 1-4MBit national
Unlimited traffic! :-)

No idea how reliable it would be for you. For me it works well 95% of the
time. I decided to buy the equipment, and it cost $300. You can rent it
from NZ Wireless for $20+GST per month I think. Different gear from what I
have, but that's ok.

Also not sure about the email addresses deal, because I haven't bothered to
get mine set up. I've got 5 addresses in various places already, such as
this Slingshot one.

I can give you more details about my experience with it (basically, the guy
I deal with has been excellent in terms of service) and you could check
http://www.nzwireless.co.nz for their page. 

If you're in the CBD, I could pop around with my equipment to see if your
place can reach the Access Point. (It's portable at the moment because I
just put it on my window sill when I need to use the net. It should be
roof-mounted).
