OECD Data Shows Slow US Broadband Growth

WASHINGTON, June 14, 2010 – The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development has just released its updated broadband statistics for December 2009. In a shift in their methodology, fixed wireless and satellite connections are now going to be their own separate categories due to the increase in mobile broadband options available. With the recent addition of Chile to the organization average penetration rates have grown to 23.3 subscriptions per 100 inhabitants up from 22.8 in June 2009.
