| Addendum I forgot I don't think BPL is worth exploring for large cities, metro, or anything within 15 miles of COs. Since that area is already well covered by technologies that are sufficiently fast. The only real change I can see is needed in those areas is an increase in the upload speeds without such lame jumps in price, but I also think WiMax for cities is perfectly do-able. Verizon is already a good proof of concept on that one. Though you still can't beat the low latency of a wired connection.
I think even though the market is small, BPL as per Corridor's technology, would be good to get out to rural areas until the market is big enough to attract big money fiber-pipe layers to the scene. Then powerco's expand to the next rural area that is created by the expansion.
We live in interesting times, but then each generation says that. |
