Yes you probably know if you aint got broadband you aint going to be able to play xbox live, suckers. I myself aint got broadband but hopefully before xmas i will and not because my exchange has been updated because i did a serious amount of research. Some of you wont see broadband till 2010, but this can change that yes you can now get broadband EVERYWHERE. http://www.everywherebroadband.com/ebb.html yes you now can play xbox live.

Very clear. Was listening in to Americans talking about the tags. One was 19 on the 15th and using her brothers account. Had some fighting for position with her on the track. How she picked her rider was down to who she thought was the hottest looking from the pictures :). So cool being able to talk to Americans over XBox Live.

Taken from the XBox Beta Test site.

10. Can I use Satellite Broadband
Xbox Live will not work with satellite offers.

It wont work because you still need a modem to upload and make the website requests. Downloading fast only needs a small upload speed, so a ADSL connection could have a very low upload speed, and still download fast. But of course your upload speed would be about 2k/s when its 30k/s on ADSL. So with XBox Live you need a fast upload speed to upload your position in the game, any talking you do e.t.c.

This will NOT work with XBox Live. You still use your phone line to request the information/webpages, meaning your upload is about 33k or less when you need 256k. The download speed may be fast but the upload speed is way too slow for XBox Live.

No you can't. Not if it's that stupid satellite thing, as your upload speed won't be fast enough.
