Why would anyone want satellite internet in the DR? We already have great internet access with Codetel, and I think the other DSL providers are pretty decent too.
With satellite internet you're going to get huge amounts of latency, which is going to mean impossible delays on VoIP phonecalls, and somewhat slower browsing. Sure, transfers will be fast once you get them started.. but realistically, how much of your time is spent on long transfers vs browsing and looking at different web pages?
Also, I can pay $30/month for dsl compared to $104 for satellite?
I must be totally missing the point here!
