Do you have satellite internet? What's your opinion of it? We live in a rural area and dial-up is currently all that is available to us. HughesNet is advertising to us that with Federal stimulus money, we are eligible for satellite internet at no cost for equipment and a lower monthly rate with no contract.

If we get a faster connection, I'll miss all the mini-naps I get while waiting for pages to post!!! :D :D But I might get a lot more sewing done if I don't spend as much time here! LOL

We would appreciate your opinions on your company / service / cost, etc.

I really trust the opinions expressed here :thumbup:
