Satellite options with decent download limit?

    I live in broadband black spot in Meath. Spent over 4 years trying to find out if we'll ever get broadband or efibre in the area, but have just given up. I'm on 3 midband with 60GB limit. It's ok during the day but come 7pm and forget about it. I can hardly check email with it. But it's 60GB so I never have to worry about going over my allowance.

    I was looking at some Satellite options, but the download limit is a complete joke for the prices they charge!

    Does anyone know of any decent Satellite options with 60GB+ or unlimited?

    What's the difference between Fixed and Standard Satellite service?

    Between Trim and Navan in Meath. I think Ripplecom might be in the area, but I've heard mixed reports about their service.
