I know this is late, but notice who and why bought the HW?

According to the Dallas Morning News (who is in the same area), the hardware was bought by the owners of the power poles, Oncor. And a quote from Chris Schein, a spokesman for Oncor: "Oncor is not in the telecommunications business, and it has no plans to get into the telecommunications business".

They want to use it for ----- Monitoring your power usage and other items on the grid. I wonder if Oncor had any relationship with Current Communications. After all some of us have said that would be the mostly likely outcome of all that investment $$.
