| "Not on the right track" and "dead" are very different things. The original post also contained a number of factual errors. (For instance, UTOPIA can service around 80,000 addresses, not 50,000, and has at least 8,000 subscribers, not 3,000). Most of it is basic fact-checking kind of stuff.
I've taken UTOPIA to task for spending over a year working on their service-checking tool with nothing to show for it. Right now, you can submit your address and contact info on their website to see if service is available at a particular address. As far as WVC goes, the footprint is very small and it's going to be a while before service is deployed any further. WVC has a demographic that, as a whole, isn't the most likely to buy service and I've gathered that UTOPIA has placed it near the back of the line as a result. Your best bet is to get a SAA together with your neighbors to pay for the installation costs.
