Ant <http://aqfl.net/> writes in with news that won't be welcomed by the
incoming US administration as it tries to expand the availability of
broadband Internet service. A recent report from the Pew Internet & American
Life Project <http://www.pewinternet.org/PPF/r/273/report_display.asp>indicates,
as noted by Ars Technica, that two-thirds
of Americans without broadband don't want
it<http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20090122-two-thirds-of-americans-without-broadband-dont-want-it.html>.
*"...when we look at the overall reasons why Americans don't have broadband,
availability isn't the biggest barrier. Neither is price. Those two,
combined, only account for one-third of Americans without broadband.
Two-thirds simply don't want it. The bigger issue is a lack of perceived
value."
