We worked with a bunch of Indian tribes in the Grand Canyon several years back 
- we learned that you shouldn't give them terms, cause if they don't pay, since 
they're a sovereign nation, you can't sue them...your only recourse is declare 
war

Subject: [Motorola II] Broadband work with Indian Reservation

I will be attending a Strategy Meeting in New York later this month which is 
hosted by NABA (Native American Broadband Association and Intersections 
International).  Alex Goldman will be covering these meetings as well.  Between 
now and then, I would like to hear from WISPs across the country that may have 
worked with Indian tribes in the past or are presently working with them.  Part 
of Alex's articles will focus on how private ISPs are successfully working with 
the Indian Nation, however I would also like to hear the downside of anyone's 
experiences.  NABA has reached out to WISPA to develop alliances and 
collaboration, both on the lobbying front and the development of public/private 
partnerships so that many of the grants awarded to the Indian tribes will have 
a good local ISP partner to assist in the implementation of the projects.

If your ISP business is near a reservation, I would like to hear from you in 
the next week.

Respectfully,
