Not worldwide I assume, broadband availability seems to depend on
geographic conditions.

In some areas broadband isn't available at all, like in small Japanese
peripheral islands. ADSL is the possible fastest mean for connection.
On the other hand, in urban areas, there is no or little price
difference between broadband and other means, specially if the former
is equipped by building owners or such.

While I agree on that using images is not so nice always for those
people and that lynx helps much in low speed connection (it was my
friend too), I wonder who knows it specially among Window users in
these days.
