Ha! I doubt it. Most things are generally more expensive here than in the U.S. mainland, because we are an island which basically and totally depends on imports.
I won't even bother to mention the shipping companies who take advantage of the situation, or the local businesses who use our isolation and dependence on imports as an excuse to inflate their prices.
There was a time when my ISP totally monopolized the situation here. Now there are other options. Still, I bet you wouldn't be caught dead paying $115.00/month for a 15 MB connection.
You divide that 15,000 Mb by 8 bits, and what do you get?
How about 1.875 MB/sec on a good download connection. Sometimes I've seen it hit 2.0 MB/sec, but not too often.
