It is funny today, Silicon Valley announced free Wireless in the Valley.
Toronto Hydro is going to sell it to TO… sigh…one day TO will be a leading city…

Hold onto your seats, I was there, uploading to the internet at 8.9 Mbps! Enough for voip and a little bit more i'm sure.

I'm sorry but if you think the CEO of THT is a snake-oil salesman, than you haven't met enough snake-oil salesmen!

I'm sorry Mark that you provided a platform for TH to demonstrate its cavalier approach. And if their downtown mesh network works as slowly as the one at the telecom summit, the telcos/cableco won't have anything to worry about.

A sh** disturber, as in he is full of sh**? Difficult (and expensive) to run voice over WLAN in a corporate envitonment, never mind in a public MESH. This is the problem when you get a snake poil salesman running the show…

I love sh#$-disturbers.
Entwhistle at Telus says their hedge against falling wireline revenues is wireless. Maybe by selling clips of Telus idol?
Projects like this can cut into many of the ILEC's different revenue streams at the same time. What fun.

The Telco Industry is a great place to witness dissruptive innovation at it's finest.
