They have to drop the price with regards to satellite internet connectivity. Understanding that it is one of the few options (other than using the electrical grid) available for "broadband" internet access when comcast and verizon decide it's not cost effective to service areas (footnote, I'm not out in the "boonies" and comcast is my only real way of getting broadband since verizon can't see fit to augment their equipment so that we can get DSL, and as for FIOS, LOL we'll probably never see that since i'm just in middle-class area vs being wealthy - seems like verizon is giving them the FIOS hookup first, yeah, i know it's all business..)
Maybe WiFi/WiMax will end up being a better solution if it really ends up being widely deployed... I'd think especially for VoIP applications..
