Sky Angel offers HughesNet Internet service

[JeffH]

I just received the December issue of the Sky Angel Guide with the announcement on page 4 that Sky Angel partners with HughesNet to offer satellite internet.

I would love to have the service as my only other option is Comcast:( . Our phone company does not offer DSL past our home at this time. The $59.99/month is a little expensive for me so I hope they have some type of promotional offer.

Which satellite location is the HughesNet service on?

Hughes net is the old Directway offered by Direct TV. Not really a good deal unless you can not get service any other way. Quite expensive. Go to hughesnet.com
