BRUSSELS: Satellite broadband provider Hughes Europe shows off a 10Mbit/s connection running video on YouTube in a demonstration of how the technology is able to provide adequate connections for key online tasks.
Companies from the satellite industry lobbied policy makers on Tuesday to reconsider the use of the technology as an acceptable way to close the digital divide for millions living in underserved areas.

Tube Radios
Tube Radios were once the rave. Then came solid state, then Integrated Circuits. Satellite Internet is like an old tube radio. Let it go, it's toast. No mater how much bandwidth they demo, they never bother to mention the latency. A dieing technology that Hughes is desperate to get their ROI before it finishes dieing off.

All shared media have a fair-access-policy
Whenever you are using a shared medium, there is a fair-access policy in place - independent of the technology used. Otherwise a few very high bandwidth usage customers would be able to ruin the experience for all of the other users on the service. But yes, we have learned from the experience in US and you will see that the fair-access-policy is now based on monthly downloads caps instead of daily limits.

And what's the FAP?
I suffered with Hughes for six very long years. The speed was troubling, but the 200 MB daily cap was unusable. What's the FAP (aka cap) for this new wonderful service?
