Do the math. That's $8.00/GB/month. Hell, that make COMCRAP look good, which is about $0.28 cents per GB. Of course, neither of them hold a candle to FIOS, which cost $0.00184 (1/10 of a penny) cents per month per GB. So hughesnet costs 28 times MORE than Comcrap, and 4,320 times more than FIOS on a PER GB basis. If that's not an argument for a real nationwide FIOS rollout, I don't know what is.
Sprint/Verizon/AT&T and their 5GB cap or should I say FAP, charges $12 per GB... so Hughes would be a bargain... nah, I was just kidding.
