I guess it easy to deploy in rural areas than in big cities, esp where big building would interfere.

Competition from other established wired providers is what stops residential WISP deployment in big cities, not buildings.

Don't underestimate the value cutting the wire brings the user. Having my laptop go anywhere in my house and yard is fine, but to be able to get in the car and have that range is worth the second fee, or changing providers.

Roaming (like hot spots) is a tiny niche market compared to the possible market served by providing last mile connectivity to users who currently have no options save for satellite.
