Off Topic: DSL and wireless connection
technology...in America
We have been hearing about this piggy-backing of
ISPs on high voltage copper for nearly ten years; one must assume,
therefore, that until FCC willingly bows out of the arena (or is blessedly
disbanded by a quorum of sober legislators)...that nothing will be
done.
"10 to 100 MB wireless transmission with
reception assured by small cigar-shaped antennae was introduced two years ago;
it is, naturally, in existence nowhere (except a few small private
real-estate developments where the developer is the transmitter and the
owners/lessors are the receivers. Why? Because the technology is too good
- It has a range of 10 to 20 miles,and too cheap - parts cost about the
same, or less than individual home networking devices used now. Those who chose the political means to accumulate wealth
instead of the economic means have joined hands to stand across history yelling
stop; the immense effective control these coercive (slugs) have accumulated is
exerted to prevent the private and mutually beneficial voluntary exchanges
preferred by buyers and sellers of privately owned property in air wave
discoveries."
"Like the hydraulic car before it, is this
technology going to be gobbled-up and hidden? in a one line reference in
the encyclopedia of anti-competitive devices, under Trophies
extracted from a once vibrant society of agile, observant and resourceful
adventurers in the productive aisles of enterprise and voluntary exchange, --
the mutual benefits of which have defined the epitome of peace and prosperity.
Life in the New World, by Horatio Ongust"

As a result, major US telecommunication providers just
withheld broadband from the market rather than give competators access to
the technology at below market cost rates.
wm - competition is the
key. In that regard, it is my understanding that 16 test market
studies have now been completed by electric utilities of FCC-approved
technology that supplies broadband over the electric line. The only
downside that I have heard is that it might interfere with ham radios.
Has anyone heard whether or not commercialization will occur in the near
future?
