Not a lot of info here, but the WSJ is reporting that DirecTV will FINALLY start offering broadband Internet access via power line distribution. The service is possible through a deal with Current Group, who provides broadband communications over power lines.

How much would you pay for broadband ‘net from DirecTV? With $20 satellite TV available, this could make up part of a wicked package deal.
