Steve,

Unlimited use, $99 installation, $39.xx month. Kind of neat that it will just be ON all the time, no need to sign on. Looking forward to it.

John

Steve:

I have had Hughes DirecPC since January and am quite satisfied with download speeds of upto 400 kbps as a temporary alternative to much higher speeds of cable modems (a la @ Home) which are currently not available in my neighbourhood.

You still need a phone line for uploads and are limited by the speed of your modem and phone line.

You can get much more info from this site:
direcpc.com

Srini.
