Philadelphia is not spending taxpayer money - they set up a non-profit and Earthlink is assuming the financial risk.
Heh... you got a lot to learn about the way things get done in Philadelphia The only risk Earthlink is taking is that all the politicians they bought off don't end up in prison or jump to their deaths from atop the City Hall tower.
So you're saying that the city is spending taxpayer dollars to build this network? Do you have a reference or is this an intuition?

I thought you were saying that Earthlink was assuming the financial risk on the stadum.
The original post talked about the money spent on the stadium, not any money spent on Wireless Philadelphia.

My bad! I know nothing of the stadium.
