notes

This is a great technology for hdtv all the way to ethernet speed internet but has limited availability AND new wireless mobile technologies will approach these speeds at the same cost so fiber has lost its window | T1's are still the most reliable and solid internet choice for corporate america. It's not the fastest or the cheapest. But it has the highest up time and the least potential points of failure since you are connected directly to the phone company | Cable modem has come a long way. It offers very high speeds with reasonable consistency. It is however still a SHARED bandwidth system so if a neighbor downloads video streams of quality viewing material at 11pm, you're speed can be seriously compromised | Reliable. Once again, direct line to the phone company | Useful for getting short emails out from remote areas of Kenya and Indonesia where only a phone line are available | OFDM is Qualcomm's way of fighting the industry's trend to cut out Qualcomm's royalties... (see next box) | Using unLicensed spectrum major companies are betting on Wimax to beat Qualcomm technology and put more on their bottom line | This is a wake up call from the CHP officer behind you for you driving 80mph while watching streaming ESPN on your laptop | This is exciting. Real DSL Speeds to your laptop at 80mps on I-5 | If you can get a hard wired cable, your better off | There are wired internet services and then there is the wireless internet access provider | This is aways the last resort | poor coverage across the globe not worth getting | strong coverage. most likely anywhere you have cell reception, you'll get broadband mobile internet access | usefull in th EU | this is the older slower brother to EVDO. it is available in more regions but you're not likely to be in those regions unless you are an agrarian vet | for the first time, I'm glad to see this square. | |
