You might want to investigate some of the new USB devices that connect  
to cell towers and give you Internet access. They are dirt cheap as is  
access time and download capacity. I used to have to pay $100/month  
for satellite and the speed was much slower than I am getting with my  
USB ZTE device. I pay $20/month for it. It gives HSPA (3.5G) service  
with a cel tower close by and my downloads are around 2Mb/sec. It  
would probably be faster if I lived closer to the tower, but I am  
quite happy with it. If you want to use an Airport with it, just  
enable Internet sharing over Ethernet, connect a Ethernet cable to  
your Airport device and you should be able to pick up a signal  
anywhere in the house with your Touch.
