[menog] Satellite Transport Services

[Mehmet Akcin]

Hello Kiyam,

You can also take a look at http://www.eutelsat.com to compare
pricing/service quality , they do have similar service offerings and I've
used them in 1997 while working at Istanbul Technical University and had a
reliable service from them
