| Talked to a fixed wireless dealer here a few weeks ago and according to him it will be a godsend to rural customers because it works without line of sight like the (I think he said it's the 900MHz band)900MHz band does now for fairly short distances but the 700MHz band can do it over way farther distances so Theoreticly if you were able to recieve TV with a normal antenna then you will be able to recieve broadband as well. He said that while major markets will buy up alot of it that there will likely still be enough for smaller dealers to set up on and use.
He didnt say as much of course but I think maybe he has plans to make use of it to Run some of the fixed wireless and telephone companies around here into dropping their prices on internet. He is already working on one local telco company with the traditional fixed wireless bands buy offering his buissness class service package which is 1028MB/s up and down and unlimited for less than the telco is offering 128 up and 256 down DSL service. I think if the smaller dealers can get ahole of some of the bandwidth like he plans you will see alot more of this because 3 antennas set up to cover one little town and its rural residents will turn into one antenna to cover several square miles. This could be a good thing.
