DSL extreme is only available in some..some large urban areas.

In fact..DSL isnt even availble in most of America

That's the reason that Hughsnet and other satellite-based services are
gaining acceptance and advertising heavily - especially via satellite TV
services. G

While - in my area - AT&T does offer DSL, the service is unavailable
outside of town due to distance limitations (distance from a central
office). This means that those outside city limits either use 56Kb
dialup, a cell phone service (5GB/mo. limit), or a satserv.

FWIW, most of the dweebs that design web pages today are blissfully
unaware that their multi-megabyte/page masterpieces can take an hour to
load over a scratchy dialup line...
