    Of course, Satelite is here - there are people on these boards using it.

    Not one of them would argue that it's a replacement for terrestrial services.
    Just waiting for it to get a bit more reasonably priced.
    Companies such as Blueyonder have still got to take a foothold. If there is a demand, there will be a supply. Once you have a high speed connection, once the time is right most people will go faster and faster given the choice... I would anyway.
    You're new to all this, aren't you?

    Unless someone finds a way around the speed of light limitation then the latency with satalites is probably going to make the unsuitable for games:(

    Top Spin is rock hard online. I tried it a few times and had my arse handed to me. 'Gamer tag' is your gamertag? You did well to get that, especially so recently. I see XBL newbies resorting to the numbers at the end of names.
