| Broadband Provided to you by Uncle Sam.... Hmmm, I think I'll pass. Can't really see something that is provided by the gov actually being useful or worth it. (thinking about Amtrack business model=bottemless money pit) I'm sure there will be plenty of new taxes to collect for it though and speeds as fast as 128k. =) |

by proffering providers discounted access to state resources (towers, rights of way, poles). |

Spitzer needs to do more with broadband access all over the state.
For Rural the best solution is probably something along the lines of WiMax. The state needs to map the areas where broadband is lax which is essentially all they seemed to have announced from what I can tell. Private carriers can fill the gap such as »www.m2znetworks.com/ can help fill the gap if they can get FCC approval. Also solutions like BPL for rural can be a nice filler as well.
As for the INNER City part of New York City and for maybe some acceleration of fiber optics, what needs to happen is that RCN needs to get cranking and built out more 2 way plant fiber optics to new markets and territories in addition to Verizon FIOS. |
