dfinney writes "'Wireless cable, which uses a network of land-based antennas to carry signals to and from a small dish at a user's home, is supposed to be cheap -- or at least cheaper than wired cable or wireless satellite service.'" Another possible alternative for high-speed internet is always a good thing.

    Rabbit ears and broadcast antenas! :-)

    Even stranger than "Cable without cables" is the idea that there is an alternative to "wireless satellite service."

    Do people actually have "wired satelite service"?
