I won't be getting one. Whatever they decide to quit telling me what I can and can not install then I might consider one.

Until then I am eyeballing Google's new tablet that they are coming out with. --->

Ping statistics for 74.54.226.166:
    Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
    Minimum = 596ms, Maximum = 1053ms, Average = 819ms

These ping times are(sadly) why if somebody ask me which satellite provider to use I tell them to go with Hughesnet. Wildblue used to put those ping times to shame until they implemented their traffic shaping technology at the end of 06 I think. Now I do good if I can get a ping to go as low as 1053ms.
