The way things are going, I am rehearsing each night (after many years), "Want fries with that?" and "Welcome to Wal-Mart." That's what it's coming to, unfortunately.

Again, I don't but there are alternatives sm
I don't use this keyboard, but there is one there I am going to order - just from a different website. It is about $40 less on at least 3 other sites, so just make sure you shop around. The one I want has an integrated touch pad below the space bar to help reduce elbow movement to the mouse. I don't have carpal tunnel but do have ulnar nerve entrapment symptoms, so for me it is the elbow movement I need to cut down.

ok. it changes once a year...and there are other alternatives--sm
than to buy into something that costs 80.00 at a time from an organization that no longer promotes the american MT. JMO

Help -- I need alternatives to dial-up

After living in town for a year and having DSL, I have now moved back to the country where DSL is not an option. I have contacted my local phone providers as well as Verizon wireless to see about a wireless (satellite?) connection. Dial-up is so slllloooowwww -- it's driving me nuts. Does anyone out there have any suggestions.

I have tried Earthlink, Verizon, and my local phone provider. The best I could get was Verizon Wireless, but it was $60 a month and had a limit of 5 GB per month. I'm not sure how much I transmit/receive, so I would prefer an unlimited plan. Any ideas?

Also, how secure are these satellite connections?

Alternatives to foot pedal?

My lower back, leg and feet have been aggravated lately from using the foot pedal. Is there anything out there been invented besides a foot pedal to stop/start/rewind or is the foot pedal pretty much it? This is where voice recognition might come in handy ...
