Some of you may have already heard about this recently about quantum teleporting.

i actually thought a few years ago they could teleport. But meh, teleporting a human probably wont happen for a looooooooong time.

The idea is less of teleportation and more Faster than Light information communication. In short, a super computer using Quantum Entanglement could be infinitely large but still be faster than any normal computer with the shortest lengths of wires.

And broadband to rural america (and rural anywhere) that is of better quality than some of the *best broadband availaible to anyone today! Imagine playing online games with anyone in the solar system, with 0ms latency :P.

If it exceeds the speed of light, doesn't it get there before you send it?

No, the speed of light is slower than instantaneous. The idea is, the two atoms, no matter how far apart, act like they are the same atom. This might even explain psychic phenomenon in cases like twins!

Look on YouTube for Dr. Quantum and Quantum Entanglement.
