I might also add that many people here still use 56k dial up modems as they can't afford the 129.00 a month. That is the ONLY option here, and for many people in the United States. These satellite companies that supply this expensive service are raking it in because there is no other option and they know it. But, for sure they will be taking advantage of this deregulation's full tilt, and we as customers will pay even more for much less. Unless we sell our house and move, or they use the money they were given to expand. They won't. And being five miles from town, just five miles from "real" internet is infuriating..but money is what this is all about, who has the most wins, but these companies got a big win from this.
