My parents live in Colorado Springs. They just got some sort of wireless ethernet from sprint. They were told that, because they live halfway up a mountain, it would be 5+ years before DSL or cable was available to them, even though the main city of CS has both. Down here in Dallas, it's the other way around- 5+ years for the wireless deal. If this guy *really* wanted to make some money, he'd run fiber up the mountains to the rich retired folk who live at the top.:>

But when you live on top of a mountain, pretty much everything between you and the next mountain is LOS.
