I wish things were so simple. I have lived here for over 20 years. This is the fastest growing area in the state and isn't served by the government or the monopolies. I have tried to get broadband for serveral years now and it just isn't hapening. My statement is that I can do a lot better in a third world nation for free than here beacause of the actions of those in power in both government and buisness. Population density and demand are not the issue here.
I agree. I live in Puna Hawaii and can't even get broadband. No cable, dsl, or satelite. But can go to Saigon and get free WiFi that is much much better than any service I can get here. The manopolies on this island won't try to service the population.
