This may or may not fly but I enjoyed reading the story. Here is a guy trying to bring something to his community without a public subsidy. I hope he has a business plan, a good accountant and makes a bundle--someday.
I live just north of Delray Beach, and I can tell you for sure that the demographics that make up the majority of that city are not the type that are going to shell out any money for a wireless Internet system. It just ain't going to fly!

they're not going to pay for the system. They'd pay to use it just like they pay ATT, VZ, or Comcast, Bright House or someone else for access to the Internet.

That is what I am talking about. The demographics that make up the majority of that city are not the type to be surfing the net (in any form), much less shell out money on a monthly basis for wireless Internet access.

Maybe we should call Telco and Cable co and see how many customers they have in that area for internet.

I'll bet you its more than what you think and claim. Just because you don't think so i'll bet you that you're wrong.

I am too lazy and really couldn't care. You are right, the service will be a hit.
