Re: BPL is a farce...
I'm thinking, for Rural areas, Wireless may be their last, best hope. I don't see fiber being economical to run for a long time out into the rural areas, but a highspeed wireless option could cover a large area with much less startup costs.
Seems this 700 mhz auction really could be even more important for that reason alone. If the big players get it and sit on it, it's going to be a sad day for America's information infrastructure, IMHO.
