Re: Earthlink is Toast

I think they'll survive, but it's going to be a highly specialized market they fill and they'll be a relatively small operation maybe picked off by someone doing the same thing. Terrestrial Next-gen broadband networks are completely cut off from them, so the FCC really signed their death warrant some time back....

And as you say the major markets will be served by incumbent (either Sprint/Cable Wimax or telco Wimax 3G), so I don't see a lot of wiggle room either.
