Re: Technology advancement is great BUT

Muni WiFi fails because it's a technology designed for 300' radius. WiMAX is made for this. I feel sorry for cities suckered into using WiFi for a city-wide deployment. WiMAX is now ready and is the way to go. Being new it will of course have it's challenges, but you don't move forward until someone takes the first step.

Agreed. Dublin, Georgia is one of those cities. The town received a $318,750 grant from GTA... the city chipped in with an additional $159,375 grant. So far, they have WiFi downtown and plan to spread it across 40% of the city by 2009. ( »www.gmanet.com/Paper.aspx?CNID=23944 )
