The term "digital divide" is less prevalent these days, but there's still a gap between higher- and lower-income Americans when it comes to Internet access and usage.
Some 95% of Americans living in households earning $75,000 or more a year use the Internet at least occasionally, compared with 70% of households earning less, according to a new report from the Pew Internet & American Life Project. The study also found that the relatively well-to-do were more likely to have broadband access at home and more technology and communications gear.
