Santa Barbara, CA | Just won't work Here's the problem... Lompoc is about %50 Hispanic. Most of them are just trying to make ends meet. Having wireless is not an issue, something that won't make their day in and day out any better. I know Lompoc, I've lived there. The city is living in a pipe dream, too far in the future, the locals just don't have the need or the means to take advantage of wireless. There is no real city center, which is where wireless is advantageous. Lompoc consists mostly of suburbs, and cable and dsl is available. Good idea, wrong place. |
| I know plenty of tech savvy mexicans, that has nothing to do with it. The fact is there trying to compete with cable and dsl and that's not going to happen. I would use there service if I didn't have to log in via a website each time and my pings were at a acceptable rate for gaming. I think the city should utilize this system more for other purposes, like setup a webcam for the high school football games or so people can pay our also muni electricity bills. |
