This sounds pretty similar to Monet Mobile, which was available in my area for a while. I got ~800kbps pretty consistently. They folded recently, which is disappointing. The coverage is much like cell. In fact, I was given to understand that most of their towers were shared with Sprint. On the major downside, it forced me to have a winbox around though I have 6 macs. They kept promising Linux/*nix modules, but they never appeared. The coverage was surprisingly good, but limited to city limits. I've gotta resort to SprintPCS when on the road.
There is the adage "The C students run the world"'; surprising how true...
& no you are (sic) number one consideration should be learning for yourself. I've taken enough 18 week courses that I could have worked through by myself (& in most cases, ultimately, did...), to advise that you seek colleges/Univs that offer some experience other than the 'career training' you think you ought to be seeking. Your life will be dependent on you and the people you find. Though University has traditionally been a good place to enter the old boys network, I, personally, believe that viable business models current are not snot specific. You can easily meet the people you need outside of the tower. Really, only if you want to work For someone would I worry terribly about the perceived quality of your degree (do not read 'education').

sorry I missed the above monet post. However, the *nix issue was important. The darwin port would have been fab. Too bad monet folded.
