Most forms of satellite are available most everywhere. I had DirecWay for 3 miserable years. Glad to hear you're happy with WildBlue, but (no offense intended) frankly I gotta laugh at any implication that it's as good as a 3M DSL. No way.

Satellite Internet is not broadband. Not even close. Ping times of 1000ms will never qualify to be called broadband. And they are not even in the same league for reliability or price.

Satellite? Just say no.
