New Orleans Wireless did get off to a great start in November of '05, and they were talking about jump-starting their economy by running the system themselves.  There are politicians in New Orleans that are working to keep what they have, but seems that this is driven by "other providers" to keep selling what they sell...

Does seem like there should be a sound business basis for keeping that WiFi running, and not "kick 'em while they are down"...

So ?  It's New Orleans. Didn't they ban the use of the
