Re: one more

What "week-long or day-long" conferences or events need a 60 kilometer diameter of coverage? Even Burning Man is small enough to cover with a hot spot or two--if you have the fat pipe to the web.

Even a large convention with attendees spread throughout hotels all over a metro area would have problems--like satellite, this isn't going to work very well indoors.

MAYBE this could provide a temporary "bridge" to a event in the boonies like Burning Man, but realistically, it'd be much simpler to just have it serve as a single fat pipe in and out, and still use Wi-Fi for the connections to the end users--that way you don't have to set up each attendee with special hardware.
