Just want to add two things: 1. Additional voiceXML utility has been added and deployed. Now one can call the toll free number to search node information not only just by zip code, but also by state and city name.
2. We are at the process of replicating the node information of seattlewireless and personaltelco into our system, as well as the information about the wireless nodes in SF, Toronto, and Vancouver so that we can do a load testing just for the hack of fun.
