AT&T debuts satellite broadband Internet access. We already covered thisĀ a couple of weeks ago but the service is now officially started.
Through a partnership with WildBlue, it blankets rural and remote areas across the company’s traditional 13-state local residential service area. That potentially gives 11.5 million additional homes and businesses. Plans start at $50 for a broadband 1.5 Mbps downlink and 256Kbps uplink.
AT&T is also preparing to beef up its Project Lightspeed, synonymous of a triple-play (Internet access, IP phone, IP TV) service.
Despite its participation in the NSA wiretapping program, these offers are still a big threat to Vonage, whose yesterday’s public introduction isn’t going ‘that well’.
