Typical in rural areas is $100 for 5mbps or even less. This is less than a mile outside of a town with a university and decent cable connection — they just don’t lay cable out into the country, and the phone lines can’t (or won’t) handle higher speeds

I would expect it'll be relatively the same cost everywhere, but I could be wrong in that. These satellite (and point to point) internet services aren't really designed for people who have a lot of internet options.
