Surely there will still be a market for dial-up ?. I have broadband, but it only works on my designated home number. If I need to check email when away from home, I use a 'pay-as-you-go' dial-up account, which costs next to nothing to run. The alternative would be to find a hotspot - not easy in a residential area - or to set up a wireless link to a mobile phone - expensive and dependent on good mobile reception.
