WildBlue Communications, a Colorado-based, high-speed, broadband Internet provider, is bringing its "next generation" satellite capabilities to Denver for a hands-on demonstration.

The demo is intended as an opportunity for visitors to experience the new highly accelerated speeds alongside the current high-speed Internet service, used by nearly 400,000 WildBlue customers in the rural United States right now, including 11,000 subscribers in Colorado. The demo is planned for April 29, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., at 1450 Grant Street, directly east of the State Capitol.
