I'm posting this before I read the rest of the thread, so someone might
have already covered this. WildBlue is installing in my area and we are
almost
seriously considering it. Skype is not only a problem because of the
difference in upload and download speeds, but also because all WildBlue
traffic
is on a delay, so real time phone conversations are stilted with pauses.
