Hmmm

This might not be too bad for our rural friends that don't have other options. From their FAQ:

How fast is this service? How does it compare to cable modems and DSL? Does it have the capability to be faster?

WildBlue's always-on broadband Internet connection provides speeds that are comparable to DSL and cable modem service. At launch, we will offer downstream speeds of up to 1.5 Mbps - more than 25 times faster than today's 56k dial-up speeds and upstream speeds of up to 256K which exceed most current satellite broadband providers. WildBlue's high bandwidth also opens up a window to a world of rich content that is largely unavailable through dial-up modems.

Yea for the rural areas this service may be good since it's their only option (which is meant for them) next to dial up if they have that as an option.
