Re: Satellite Broadband?

said by battleop See Profile :

Their FAP is geared to average joe blow user. I have a relative that uses what ever Dish network resells and he is as happy as can be with it. He gets on. Checks his email, gets some pictures of the grandkids, checks the weather to see what the day is going to be like and gets off. For the "average" user satellite is just fine.
250 MB a day or less is fine?

If having access to different types of broadband, cheap and fast, without restrictions then maybe you need to consider moving. Living out in the country has it's trade offs.
yes that's the solution everyone should move into the cities. that will help things. Let's make them MORE crowded. Real fricken smart idea there guy.

I guess people out in the boonies shoudn't expect electricity, phone service or paved roads either?

By the way my best friend lives maybe 3 miles from city limits. HARDLY out in the "country". He SHOULD have more choices than dial-up or broadband. For some reason TDS serves his aprt of the county. The MILLIONS they get from the USF they should make DSL available to him. Especially since he paying into the USF in the first place.
