| Re: Another Alternative said by rollobancher : I really dont give if it doesnt take over cable or dsl. All i care about is if BPL can give me over a 52-kbps connection that my dial-up ISp is providing me. I really dont get you guys that already have broadband and are dissing on BPL. Dont you remember the days when you were stuck on dial-up also ???? IT SUCKS! Ever hear of satellite?? It is available now. It isn't perfect, but it is better than dial-up. Too expensive for you?? -- My Web Page Join Red Room Forum | |

| Re: Another Alternative Even if it was expensive to him. Does it matter to you? So poorer people shouldn't be allowed to have a HSI option even if it is inferior in speeds?
That makes sense. In your opinion we should keep dialcrap alive, huh? | |

That makes sense. In your opinion we should keep dialcrap alive, huh? If you can read, I never said block BPL rollout. But it isn't going to move quickly, so satellite is an OPTION if he wants higher speeds now. -- My Web Page Join Red Room Forum | |

@Dial1.Atl | Re: Another Alternative You also fail to mention the upload/download caps for satellite users. Just because the fcc might say sattelite is broadband does not make it so. | |

| Yea, I know that satellite is available but personally ( and others may agree with me) i don't feel like paying $500 for the satellite alone and then $60 a month for some sleazy 512/128 kbps connection. That extra $500 spent on that satellite could go to something more use-full, like the months rent, or car payment. | |

Dial-up is better than DirecWay. More reliable and faster at times. | |
