Re: Dumping WiFi lost $61M in revenue & saved $145M in costs All due respect ... forget about Earthlink for a second and think about the city; of all cities out there I think NOLA was one of the most unfortunate choices - they have much bigger things to worry about, and precious little money to spend on non-essential stuff like wi-fi.
Just my opinon, though. |

 | Just to give you heads up... The muni-wifi project in New Orleans predated Katrina and the Earthlink project.
It was originally deployed in order to monitor cameras placed in high crime sections of the city. |
