please send any responses to my personal email , n8dcj at yahoo.com

I have moved to a place with no land based broadband internet availability (no 
DSL or RoadRunner). Does anyone have any experience with satellite ? I am 
concerned about the latencies , the sales guy at WildBlue claims 250-500 
millisecond which i can live with , but , everywhere on the internet i see it is 
more like 2000 milliseconds. I do not think i can get any wireless stuff either 
as i am surrounded by tree's.
