Very interested in this myself as Satellite may be my own last
best hope (but definitely only after exhausting a few other
possibilities I've got at the moment).

I'm only interested in something that I can access from multiple
PCs and always assumed this would be possible with Satellite,
despite only choosing the Business Satellite 500/1 option rather
than the pricey 500/4 option.

Wasn't there talk of a Home Satellite option a while ago for =A3650
(equipment + install) vs the Business option of =A3900?

I noted on the ISDN page that "application acceptance subject to
survey" which I just *know* is going to be the get-out that'll
prevent BT supplying me with a service. Still, it's worth a punt, I'm
that desperate.
