I'm not sure what they mean by failed though... according to the current site they are expanding to Texas. It's a new section they added recently. So is the FCC going to be stopping this tech. or what?
They sold the Texas network in Dallas to a power company who is now going to use all of the millions of dollars of fiber to.....read meters remotely. Yep that's right. 100 Mbps of how many watts people are using.

So while I have 100 Mbps to my power meter, I have the awesome choices of $50 per month for 784Kbps from Time Warner or $90 per month for 784Kbps dsl from AT&T (and they throw in a phone line so I can call my cell phone and find it when its lost inside the house.) Free enterprise rules!!!

We'll miss you pipe dream BPL. You were our only hope.
