Let Philadelphians Know About It!!

I manage a high volume shop at 31st and Grays Ferry Ave.
Almost no one and I mean no more than a couple of customers know anything about Earthlink's wireless network.
I guess my next email is to Mayor Nutter to explain the problem since no one else has.
Here in Philly it's a pretty cool situation. No good for P2P, but plenty of bandwidth for regular net activities. $20/mo is a little steep compared to Verizon DSL, but the portability at over 80% and climbing of the city is way cool.

BTW insiders tell me Philly should have the fiber laid (FIOS) for the entire city by year's end. No word on lighting it up yet.
