Internet Retailer: A surprise: Internet users resume growth, Harris says

The "plateau" in internet penetration figures Harris Interactive reported at the beginning of this year turned out to be a false peak. After growing only two percent between 2002 and 2003, the penetration figures showed four percent growth in the last eight months, winding up at 73 percent of U.S. households or 156 million users. Of those, 44 percent use broadband connections.
