View submission: Is "Moving" (#466) still a problem?

I think phone data eliminates this problem. Ignoring that, if Internet hookup is already present, it's still 2 business days to ship a router

Yep, that is my guess, people can either use their phone as is for many things, or use it as a hot spot.

I think 2008 was the year the iPhone was introduced, so without home internet, there would be no way to do even simple things that we can now do all the time with phone data.

Sometimes internet service is less expensive on average than a phone plan.
