Minneapolis Joins Unwired City Trend
Minneapolis Joins Unwired City Trend
04/12/2005 10:44 AM Minneapolis plans outsourced city-wide network: The city will request
bids on a citywide network to serve city workers, businesses, and
residences, but Minneapolis won't have any ownership of the network
nor will they put one red cent in. The goal of the network would be
ubiquitous 1 to 3 Mbps coverage through Wi-Fi hotspots that would be
tied together through what sounds like an entirely new fiber-optic
network. That leaps this proposal into a much larger cost category,
and explains why the city expects proposals from consortiums not
individual companies. The city has talked to 26 potential bidders.
Unfortunately, this otherwise accurate article states that
Philadelphia's network will be owned and operated by the city; I've
already written to them about this error. The piece also notes that
two local companies offer WiMax, which isn't possible as the
certification process isn't done yet, and confuses WiMax's
point-to-point offering with the future mobile WiMax that will allow
roaming. WiMax won't be too expensive for residential use when other
alternatives aren't available or when operators are serious about
competing on price: the higher initial cost can be offset by a lower
ongoing capital cost for infrastructure versus wireline broadband,
meaning that WiMax operators will eat more of the setup in exchange
for contract commitments. This was true in the early DSL and cable
modem days when those devices cost several hundred dollars each....

Cleveland Ranked Nation's Poorest Big
City (AP)
09/23/2004 04:51 AMAP - Crushed by the loss of steel and other manufacturing jobs,
Cleveland has ranked high for poverty before but never No. 1.
That changed when a report from the U.S. Census Bureau recently rated
it has the nation's poorest big city, putting it ahead of Detroit,
Miami and Newark, N.J.

Sure,
it's just more Bush-bashing, but it's gussied up durn pretty.
Philip Gourevitch on Bushspeak.
He is grossly underestimated as an orator by those who
presume that good grammar, rigorous logic, and a solid command of the
facts are the essential ingredients of political persuasion, and that
the absence of these skills indicates a lack of intelligence. Although
Bush is no intellectual, and proud of it, he is quick and clever, and,
for all his notorious malapropisms, abuses of syntax, and manglings or
reinventions of vocabulary, his intelligence is—if not especially
literate—acutely verbal.

ways: An outdoor Winter Carnival in town is blanketed with coverage,

Dunn Bros. is a beloved Twin Cities institution, according to

its coffeeshops that have the service in contrast to competitors like
Caribou (SBC FreedomLink) and Starbucks (T-Mobile). Not unusual. But
Dunn will take to magazines and buses promoting its free service. Once
you push something like free Wi-Fi you need to ensure that
all of your locations sport it.

Sessions in March
04/20/2004 02:04 PMEvery once in a while, we get hard numbers: Concourse reports 5,000
sessions in March for its Minneapolis-St. Paul service: MSP is the
17th busiest airport in the world by passenger volume with nearly
three million passengers entering and exiting the airport each month
(counted only once during each trip in Dec. 2003). With a mature
airport having 0.2 percent of passengers use the service--with total
gross revenue anywhere from $2,500 to $25,000 for those sessions
because of aggregator partnerships--this should be an object lesson
for new entrants into the airport market....
