My boss has had DirecTV for a year or so. AFAIK, pretty much all the systems are 2-way now. But, DirecTV(Hughesnet) sucks because of they're FAP (Fair Access Policy). He gets to download 200mb in 24 hours. After that it drops to dialup speed. There are more expensive plans but they still seem to suck pretty bad if you were, you know, like actually going to use your connection to watch a movie or download anything or basically anything besides flip through plain web pages...
He's getting Dish Network's service (WildBlue) in about a week. Looks to be a lot better. Something like 7-17GB/month and if you exceed it you still get 128k... I'm thinking about trying to get my parents set up with that too since they are currently paying like $50 for a second phone line and dial-up accesss and due to their distance out, they can't connect at more than about 21K...
