15GB for £15, if you already have a mobile phone with them. That's comparable to ADSL caps, and where I live, I get 2Mbps on either. I'd drop the DSL and the landline if I wasn't running my own business.
I'm sure most of our endeavours have been for purely mercantile reasons anyway. We sell foreigners weapons (or simply sail around their country in them) and teach them banking, they sell us spices at knock down prices. Typically we didn't find the foreign countries ourselves, we simply 'won' them from other empires.
No doubt we'll send a gunboat up there in due course, but the robots will have to find something in space that makes a good return on the outlay first. In any case, doing anything for the glory of it is seen as terribly vulgar.
Even Phileas Fogg couldn't stand travelling, desperately wanted to send a droid. Damned silly bet, almost lost the money his family made from slavery.

What's all this pansy-ass nonsense about Exim on a Pentium II?
