no broadband, no sale !

i recently purchased my dream property in a very remote area in the mountains of new mexico. no neighbors, surrounded by national forest on 3 sides, deer and elk.

we looked at several similar properties but the major reason we bought this particular property was that dsl was available.

22 miles from anywhere and i have dsl.

for the last 15 years i have lived 2.5 miles from a (texas) town of 12000 population and could not get dsl or cable. still can't as of today.

it is unbelievable that in this day and age broadband is not considered a utility and made available to everyone. it boggles the mind.

i am not talking about free broadband, just access for a fee.

over the years i tried hughes, wildblue and starband. they all sucked horribly. i'd rather have dialup.

i have used evdo for the last 3 years (sprint and alltel) and they both were many times more usefull than the sats.

but i had to move to the wilderness to finally get dsl

amazing....
