[WISPA] ATT was Re: Wimax gear

2010-01-01 Thread John Thomas
Unless the Federal Government gives ATT a blank check and ORDERS them 
to this, it is NOT ever going to happen. I have seen copies of Project 
Pronto documents that said the San Francisco Bay Area was supposed to 
have fiber to the home 10 years ago. Yes, there were a few strands 
installed, but nowhere near what what promised to get what they wanted 
from the lawmakers. We just tried to get an ADSL circuit installed in 
Concord CA, and it took a month, and at least 5 different tech site visits.

I dont know about a blank check but the government does feel a mandate is in
order and you know who their best friends are. I think the only thing
holding them back is themselves. However, I dont think they'll ever put
fiber to every shanty in every podunk town. -RickG
