Is it possible?

Smells like Broadband over power-line to me, or can it actually by widely available?

So why do you say that? TV broadcasters are already using the same frequency range for sending signals 50-70 miles, over hills, through foliage, and into buildings. Do you think only data formatted as TV can do this?

This is the one technology that can actually be more available in rural areas than in urban ones, as there are more empty channels in rural areas. I think this has the best chance of enabling rural broadband, as opposed to wasky ideas like BPL and high-high-latency satellite.
