Can anyone do a back of the envelop calculation on how much bandwidth this opens up (in order to save the internet)? ATSC is ~19 mbit/sec on a 6mhz channel, so that doesn't seem like a whole heck of a lot of bandwidth without implementing a cellular-like system, which implies that this is going to cost a lot of money to implement.
Right you are. No wireless system is ever going to be the utopia everyone is wishing for because of severe bandwidth per customer limitations.
