So if the city delayed the project and caused earthlink to not meet the deadline, the city collects $5 million. FREE MONEY! Thats the best deal ever. I suppose I would delay it too. Sounds like the lawyers messed up that contract. |

Oxford, MI | It's called a non-performance clause !
EL lawyers really screwed up big time, or they got kick-backs from the board of supervisors not to put the clause in the customer side of the agfreement..! |

According to inside sources, they are not actively going after any new customers. They are just maintaining where they are right now, possibly lining up for a buyout.

$3.5 for hotspots, and computer equipment. GOod thing they don't need that money for roads, bridges, schools, water, parks, etc. Those things can wait. ALL MUST HAVE INTERNET ACCESS AT ALL TIMES!
God, the Internet sucks. (He wrote, ironically.) |

Houston Wireless Users Group, an organization of wireless geeks, offered to help Houston design a plan and deploy it. Instead they went with the dumb Earthlink plan and it was a total cluster. I guess the city hit the jackpot, though.
