RE: Broadband choices
If you have access to DSL or Cable, you shouldn't even be consitering satalite. Satalite may have decent upload and download rates, but you can loose your signal during storms and overcast just like satalite TV. Also, when you initiate a download it will lag for a few seconds while your request is transferred to the satalite and back to earth, but once your download/upload is started it will probably reach its rated speed. The delay however, makes it feel slow.
The other flavor of satalite uses a telephone line and dialup for uploads, slowing uploads to a snails pace and once again introducing lag.
