Agh, but this is the cheaper version.

BT has released it's full TWO-WAY satellite service, which I am
awaiting fitment of, but it's not cheap.

This version gives an additional choice to those not fortunate
enough to be in a Broadband enabled area.

I know it's not a perfect world (more so in the UK than the rest of
the western world), but at least you now do have a choice (at a
price).

As some have mentioned, most traffic is downstream, so this would
suit many, especially at the price.

As always, the HA guys are years ahead of everyone else, so we want
the same as our american counterparts. Shame BT doesn't feel quite
the same.
Maybe we should get the new BT Chairman involved in HA, then we
might get somewhere. lol.

cheers
geraint.
