"Yes, you've read that right. *************.comis preparing the launch of a stunning new product which can only be described as "free to air" internet. We're not ready to announce details yet as we are finalizing issues with the manufacturer this week. But rest assured, this is unlike anything on the market today. To be clear, this is high speed internet with no monthly fee. The unit price will be under $250 (the final price has yet to be determined with the manufacturer).That's all the information we can release at this time. We will release all the details including per unit pricing by the end of May 2009."

Re: fta internet
I dont know about you guys but as far as I'm concerned high speed internet is free, I have a hawking hwu8dd that works beautifully hooked up to a old laptop and a netgear router and I get high speed in every corner of my house and I also have a magic jack so I get free high speed and phone service for $20 dollars a year and not to mention fta lol.
