| Wireless--it doesn't make sense here.
They won't allow a single highway billboard in Vermont (which is fine by me), but they want to dot the landscape with cell towers? In a region mostly covered with small mountains, where the signals aren't likely to travel into the valley beyond the next hill?
More are more VT residents seem to be opting for satellite, which is unfortunate due to its cost, unreliability and limitations. Also, it requires the purchase of expensive equipment and long contracts, which are likely to slow down the progress of fiber or cable systems getting new subscribers if or when such technologies do eventually arrive here. |
