Where? When? Did I miss something?
Yes you missed something.
Here is the FCC Wireless bureau report on wireless progress. Take note of dropping prices.

I sure don't think Martin was a great FCC Chairman & Commissioner. But during his time there since 2001, prices have dropped significantly and numbers of users have exploded both for wireless & broadband connections.
And during my 9 years of running a computer business, I have been responsible for the across the board drop in ALL technology prices. Martin can take credit for broadband prices, but I get the per megabyte drop in memory and storage prices, per mflop drop in processor prices, and per inch drop in display prices.
