Re: Makes sense in rural areas

They'll probably bring it to the larger communities within range of the mountains like Anchorage, Seward, Soldotna, kenai, McKinley park, Fairbanks, and Juneau... Nome and barrow might be a different story.. Ketchikan might be too far out for good line of sight.. who knows?

Wow of all places Alaska? Nice to know somewhere else gets a new technology first than New York City as usual.

Waiting On Dsl Or Cable

Verizon Wireless will be launching EV-DO in every tower they own over the next 2 years. This will bring hope to people in rural areas like me. $80 a month is still high, although I'd pay it for BB. Rural areas are the red-headed step children of BB. Telco's and Cable companies just do not care at all. I am 2 1/2 miles away from a RT that they can upgrade to DSL ready anytime they wanted, but will not.
