Tempe, Ariz. (PRWEB) June 19, 2007 -- Nationwide Satellite today announced a new HughesNet Promotional Purchase Plan that makes it even easier for customers to get started with HughesNet. With a lower monthly payment and no upfront or activation costs, customers can now enjoy high-speed Internet for as little as $0 Upfront and $79.99/month. This Plan is in addition to our Upfront Purchase Plan that lets customers get started for as little as $299.98 after $100 mail-in-rebate and $59.99/month.

According to Frost and Sullivan, it is estimated that about 40 percent of the population in North America is not reached by terrestrial broadband, such as cable and DSL. For these consumers, satellite broadband is an ideal solution. In fact, more than 327,000 small businesses and consumers already use the Hughes Net satellite broadband service for Internet connectivity.

Unlike terrestrial solutions, Hughes Net uses advanced two-way satellite technology making affordable broadband available everywhere in the continental U.S. for consumers and small businesses with speeds comparable to DSL. The small satellite dish needs only a clear view of the southern sky. For more information about HughesNet, please visit http://www.nationwidesatellite.com or call: 1-888-892-2434.
