Sure there are some that close up. But we're still seeing new ones form too.

And, as importantly, those still here seem to be growing by leaps and bounds too. We're running 96% ahead of last year's installation numbers right now! At least on the cash sales side of things, no special projects in there to skew the numbers either.

At this rate I might actually be able to afford to take a vacation in a couple of years!

I would tend to agree with you Peter.  That number may have been valid 12
months ago, but I have seen quite a few in my area that have closed up shop.
I can only assume that our area is similar to the rest of the country.

Where did you get THAT number?
3000.  6000.
I'd bet that there are less than 2000 total indie ISP's left.

Arrgghhhhh!!!!!

The REAL problem is that the don't accurately count providers.  They
only catch the larger ones.

We're NOT behind.  Not like some like to claim we are.

Hell, there are at LEAST 3000 wisps out there yet the FCC only has 400
of them filing the form 477.  I'll bet the real number of wisps is
north of 6000.

Why doesn't anyone ever talk about how much further ahead we probably
are?

grrrrrr
