Soon i will get a satellite broadband . . As far as i have Googled i guess its best n cheap, and most important its without a phone line .
Two way sattelite is availible without a phone line, but tends to be expensive, or have extremely restrictive usage allowances. For the same money, unless you are in an extremely rural area, you can get faster broadband with more usage for less money even including the line rental. (Primus for example will do you a phone line for just £6.29 a month) It also tends to have a high install cost.
For example, BeyonDSL's cheapest 2mb package with a miserly 2gb of usage costs £14.99 a month, and has an equipment cost of £300, plus the cost of install.
Given that you can have broadband AND a phone line, that you don't need to use if you don't want to, with unlimited usage, and up to a max of 24 meg but almost certainly more than 2meg, for LESS than the monthly cost of BeyonDSL's sattelite option, but with zero setup/install costs, from talktalk, getting sattelite simply in order to avoid having a phone line doesn't really make sense.
Be aware that it also isn't very good for gaming, as ping times tend to be higher than DSL or Cable, due to the signal going into orbit and back.
