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: http://www.4wildblue.com

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?
