[Hidden-tech] Exede satellite service?

[Kiernan Gulick-Sherrill]

Frank,

It looks like the same company as WildBlue -- who I have been recommending
for years.  They launched a new satellite this past October, and are
finally getting it up and running.  Brand new satellite, brand new
technology. Looks promising.

In regard to Reva's comment about paying for what you use... All Satellite
companies currently do that. These folks seem to have upped the cap a bit.

I still think it is probably a better deal to go with 5gb of  cellphone
internet when available, for the lower latency and lower setup fees.
