Will this help comatition?

We have wireless here in this small city Norwich N.Y. provided to us with the help of a $200,000 grant from the state, and the cooperation of the local telco Frontier.

We have RoadRunner thru Timewarner and DSL thru Frontier neither offers speeds or pricing which are competitive, 4 and 3 meg speeds respectively.

Getting wireless from the same telco seems to have been designed to eliminate competition and put state tax money in to the right pockets.

The full article in the print edition gave the info about the $200,000 grant.

Added this text since I first posted in wrong thread and now must add extra text to avoid duplicate post filter.
