If there were no other options this seems to offer a good alternative. But like you said it is expensive. Just curious why you do not do DSL from AT&T (Bell South)? You do not have to have phone service. You just tell them you only want DSL, they may charge you an extra $5 .. they told me that but never did. You can get 3 Mbps DSL for $49 a month vs the same speed with Hughes for $190 a month.

Since I am only at the lake on weekends I went with DSL lite which is 720 Kbps for only $19.95 and they also have 1.5 Mbps for $29.95. The 720 is not bad for quick surfing. But I am spoiled with Comcast in Atlanta which is now up to 12 Mbps for $52.95 a month.
