There's a high correlation between broadband and

probably has more to do with it.
Not worldwide I assume, broadband availability seems to depend on
geographic conditions.
In some areas broadband isn't available at all, like in small Japanese
peripheral islands. ADSL is the possible fastest mean for connection.
On the other hand, in urban areas, there is no or little price
difference between broadband and other means, specially if the former
is equipped by building owners or such.
While I agree on that using images is not so nice always for those
people and that lynx helps much in low speed connection (it was my
friend too), I wonder who knows it specially among Window users in
these days.
Thanks,

Many images... Although a sophisticated user can turn them off or use lynx.

As you all may have seen there is tons of media coverage coming out
around Wikipedia's 10th anniversary (Jan 15, 2011). In the midst of
this the Pew Internet Research Center released a new report today:
"Wikipedia, past and present"
