When people can put their hands on a PDA with internet access at 144Kbps they are going to freak out. It is faster than most people have in thier homes!!!

And don't forget people like me who can't get DSL or ISDN in our homes (I use DirecPC now, which sucks). We'll use the 144K for our current fixed computers. Better yet, I'll throw out the desktop and get a laptop with wireless access so I can walk around the house with it, take it to the coffee shop or anywhere else.

Lest anyone think that only those really "out in the boonies" would do this, we are just eight miles from the city and our phone lines max out at 25K. There has to be tens of millions of us out there.
