Satellite broadband is available most everywhere in the USA. Our
daughter lives in Glover VT which is about as rural and out of the way
as you can get. She is content with the broadband that she has. See:

Currently I have a 21.6 Kbps connection to the Internet. Sometimes it gets as
fast as 26.4 Kbps! The nearest broadband connection is 20 miles away. I have
no hope they will ever bring cable, fiber, or WiMAX to anywhere close enough to
effect my connection speed. A one megabyte attachment chokes my email system
for about fifteen minutes. Larger files? Hopefully I can maintain a
connection overnight or it is no use even trying. Luckily I do drive into
Portland, Oregon where they do have faster connections so I take a hard drive
along and all the URLs I've collected over the week so I can grab the files.
No, broadband connections are not available in all locations. The U.S. has a
long way to go to catch up with Japan, Korea, or Denmark.

The reality is that many of us are confined to dial-up and always will
be. (;-(
Say it isn't true! Can't you get BPL, the answer to everything, in your
area?
