 audiog join:2004-08-09 Detroit, MI | You are right!! As long as the City has all of the bases covered.
There are many cities that are that offer phone, cable and WI-FI in towns that the Regional Bells deemed as to small( not enough money). They all have CLEC certification and now her comes a major city. I hope that the city looked into all of the legal background for what they are doing. I know that Verizon and others are going to hit this with all of the legal wrangling that will force the FCC to rule on WI-FI.
FOOD FOR THOUGHT: The first set of WI-FI(VOIP) enabled cell phones are coming out if not now, very soon. The phone will auto switch to WI-FI(VOIP) and back as needed.
Oregon ruled that as long as a city has certification it is within its legal right to offer WI-FI and other network services.
Georgia also has a list of city owned phone and cable tv companies that are offering WI-FI and FIBER to your Door. |
