Thanks Brian - I guess our main concern with satellite is that there seems to be very mixed reviews around regarding consistency of speed which seems to be very variable with some reports suggesting it often becomes almost unusable in evenings or weekends, when the bandwidth is quickly gobbled up by multiple users. There doesn't seem to be any guarentee of service, other than pay your money and hope for the best!
Would love to hear experience with particular providers or contracts etc. satellite certainly seems more attractive from an installation point of view compared with getting 2 phone poles and line install costs (as well as getting decent ADSL2+ speed as I suspect not much chance of fibre optic!) the 3G speed is not bad for price vs availability and at least we have that for now.
