Having had all of cable, satellite, 'air card', and DSL Internet service, I'd put satellite fourth on that list. The speed is there, but the latency is an issue.
Something to consider is if you have a business need for the service and your employer does not reimburse you, then the service may become tax deductable. Of course, US tax laws are very complex and YMMV.

I'll be working at the new IBM call center in Dubuque, Iowa. I'm not sure if later today I'll even be able to see my IBM-Main messages when I leave Milwaukee. I'll be living on a farm in the country. I'm not sure if I want to pay $60 to $80 a month for internet access by either satellite or cell phone. Time will tell.
