Pretty much sums up the question I am asking in the title. Do you think that they will ever come up with a satellite internet service that is capable of the speeds you get on cable internet? Is it even possible?
I know about the satellite internet they have today such as the hughesnet network, but from what I gather, it is nowhere near as fast as normal cable internet.
The reason I ask is that it would make the net available to people where normal cable internet service is impossible to get. It would also give people like me an option to have another provider than crappy comcast!
But I am moving soon, so comcast will be history. But I still wonder if they will ever offer a satellite services as fast as the speeds you get on cable.
