Which will be a darn shame, as San Francisco is a near perfect city for a Wide Scale PtMP cell type engineered WISP network, based on the layout of the city, and where the high spots are. But I'm sure they'll ruin it with the high power Omni on every corner design.

I'll go ahead and predict that San Francisco will be a disaster.

Unfortunately, this may be one of the first of many such muni problems that I've been forcasting for years. Muni wireless can be done correctly and WISPs (IMHO) should always try (when allowed) to play a positive role in proper network design and operation however most muni networks are incorrectly designed by people with limited wireless experience (yes, that even includes some mesh network vendors) which will lead to network failure, waste of taxpayer money, and possible loss of jobs on the part of the city IT folks (not to mention the elected officials) who backed the networks without first learning about how wireless technology really works.
