But I think the rate of increasing broadband
connection is limited due to the cost, and many who want it already have it.


I think you're wrong on this point. Six months ago, I only knew one person with cable/broadband access. Today, probably 15% of my friends or co-workers have it and another 20% will get either DSL or cable access within two months.

I personally use Mindspring DSL and their broadband subscribers quadrupled last quarter and the pace is likely to continue for the rest of the year.
