This is simply not true. You can rent long distance lines on which you can
operate modems at 9600 baud. Even 14.4K or 16Kbaud. There's also
56Kb DDS, 256Kb DDS, 1.544Mb T1, etc. None of these services are satellite
based (thank god!).

4800 baud full duplex over DDD is coming out, it's not cheap but just wait
til we get it into a single chip!
