Re: Perhaps I'm biased but...
LOL! Ya. It amazes me how they were fine with pissing away money on DSL ISPs that resold ILEC DSL knowing that there would be no ROI for at least two or three years, on top of the fact that ILECs were pretty impossible in letting you resell to begin with. I don't get the methodology. So far what we've all seen is.. "Well.. It might work and might make us some cash eventually.. But since DSL is the latest hype why not think it may not make us cash, eh?" It's worst than trying to explain my parents way back when the reasons why it would be good to get broadband.

 Well.. At least it's an idea that could actually work. Now where's those venture capital investors..

No prob, MosDef.
The better the coop could keep the telco (ILEC, CLEC, Ma-LEC, etc.) out of the loop (except for the backhaul circuit, of course; unless one finds a provider that's selling high-throughput, dedicated PtP 5.8GHz spectrum links!), the better for the end users.
I think with the influx of housing subdivisions in rural areas, this could be the next big thing for broadband.
Again, perhaps I'm biased!

Ahh.. I overlooked that, sorry about that.
Yeah, I guess non-profit wireless Internet could work. Not having to pay the ILEC for leasing dead loop trunks would be nice too.
