Agreed overall. Wireless HAS to advance to get over this last-mile hump. Of course, if frequencies are hobbled by exorbitant licensing fees then we'll still not see as much competition as we could but at least we're moving beyond the local TEL/Cable company. I wish Sprint the best of luck with this move, and I also hope other companies (ClearWire and such) also have a good plan and progress to smack these monopolist wired-last-mile folks down a bit. Of course, especially in the case of VZ, wireline will never completely go away unless wireless can actually match it. But for many, many folks, having a 10mbps wireless pipe would be a completely valid alternative to the expensive landline folks. KM -- Don't Lie - Be Kind - Realize your Potential |
