Household in America using fast Internet connections doubled from 2001 through late 2003, according to a report. The report cited the growth is still below some expectations and especially low among minority groups and people in rural areas.
The report said use of fast Internet connections grew dramatically through October 2003 to 20 percent. The report praised such services for fueling online banking, entertainment and commerce.
Some experts said growth was disappointing, far behind countries that include South Korea, Taiwan and Canada. The report also identified troubling figures for use or availability of high-speed Internet services among blacks, Hispanics and people in rural areas where such services are not available.
