 | Overprice?? I think you all are looking at this the wrong way. This is not for the people who can get DSL or cable. This is for the poor people who have to use dial up because there live "out of the city" My dad would pay $50 a month for this if we would get it. About what he pays now with his 2nd line and dial up, and its much faster for his e-bay'n. |

 | But from the article it is IN the city. Not outside the city!
Also it makes NO sense to deploy fiber then connect it with this outmoded tech! Kind of like having a monster motor in a kiddy car!
Also is the population that low back there? |

 | reply to primeomega This service will not reach out to the rural areas unless the Government steps in and provides a substantial economic incentive to the provider. Rural areas do not have sufficient client potential to justify the cost.
