DirecTV has a satellite internet service called DirecPC
(http://www.direcpc.com). Satellite internet has been around for years but
hasn't been very popular because of latency problems related to weather and
the fact that you usually have to use a modem but sometimes other, somewhat
faster connection for your upstream. Some sites that might be of interest to
you are:

http://www.skywebtv.com/
http://www.spotbeam.com/internet.htm
Good luck.
