What is your "locale". I live in a rural, on easter side of Illinois, area approx 6 miles from town and have a 'broadband' wireless similiar to a lowend dsl for $49 a month install was $100
Included a wire mesh dish, the cable to the house(max. 100') and their modem.
Average speeds are about 500 down and 128 up with absolutely no delay as in satellite... Of course this type of option may not be available to you, but there is also one called PrairieInet or somethign or other located in the midwest..
Just a comment..

Jemez Mountains, 45 miles west of Santa Fe NM. No chance of any line of sight to any provider unless it's at least 45 degrees elevation in the sky. <g> I had a wireless connection in Taos, but had to sacrifice it to move to a beautiful area. Even the phone service is from a microwave repeater on the top of the mountains.
I'm from IL myself, only on the western edge where we had a farm. I know that line of sight is much easier to get on the plains than it is here. Where are you from Hwy. 136?
