Rural Broadband Wireless with Public
Utility Districts

Rural Broadband Wireless with Public
Utility Districts 01/24/2004 11:26 AM
Washington State wireless broadband provider partners with rural PUDs to offer service: It's a natural match to let the PUDs further serve their farflung constituents, while providing the WISP with a much lower infrastructure cost, which in turn allows them to build a profitable footprint much more readily. Maverick Wireless, founded by a former T-Mobile data manager, is starting in rural Washington State, with plans to expand to the sparsely populated Eastern Oregon. He plans 20 networks by year's end through these PUD partnerships. The utility districts install what sounds like the tower (and electrical power) for the wireless stations. In the case described, the utility already has a fiber-optic loop for backhaul. Maverick handles customer issues, like customer premises installation and billing, and splits the revenue with the PUD. Although the article says the system uses Wi-Fi, I would guess it's a proprietary unlicensed system of the sort that will eventually migrate to WiMax. The article makes an implicit connection worth noting explicitly: they point out that the 1 Mbps speed that Maverick will offer is faster than most average cable modem and DSL speeds. Two items here: first, they should have noted that DSL and usually cable modems are totally unavailable in rural areas. Even in Seattle proper, if you go a certain distance outside the city (just a few miles, really), you're stuck at 128 Kbps iDSL (an ISDN-like version of DSL). If you don't have a cable line to your house already, it can cost thousands to get one brought in. A colleague of mine recently moved to the suburb/exurb boundary. When looking for a house, he and his wife did a lot of data surveying since he needs to move large files around for his freelance work. One good-looking house was scratched when DSL possibilities were low to non-existent for the central office serving the area, and installing cable would have cost $5,000 or more. And this is about 20 minutes from downtown Seattle by highway....

Columbia Energy to Bring Broadband to
Rural Areas 08/27/2004 01:31 PM
Columbia Energy plans to use Vivato access points to serve rural customers in eastern Washington: The counties currently have no broadband access options. Rural utility companies in Washington State have been very forward thinking in bringing broadband to residents. They can use some infrastructure that they already have such electrical towers and backhaul to build the network. In some cases, the law prevents them from selling the services directly to end users so other service providers lease the access. Broadband access could dramatically affect the way that farmers in the region do business. Update: An InfoWorld article offers additional details on the installment. Columbia Energy hopes that farmers can use the network for remote control and monitoring of irrigation pumps and other farm technology. The price is right for access. For a symmetrical 256 kbps service, customers will pay $39.95....

The vintage Leia (Hoth Outfit) action figure was the second lead character Kenner produced in their successful Hoth collection. Though not as well sculpted as the other Leia in The Empire Strikes Back line, this is the figure that best represents the character, since she wore this outfit for most of the film. Check this figure, and a couple of its interesting variations added today to the Vintage Photo Archive.

Talk about Essential Action figures. Even with the wrong weapon packed with it, the vintage Han Solo (Bespin Outfit) figure is easily the best rendition of the former spice smuggler. Not only is it completely proportionate –something this character’s figures have a hard time being-- it’s darn heroically sculpted. No matter what, this figure, added today to the Vintage Photo Archive, couldn’t have been made any better. Maybe that’s why Kenner had to throw extra gimmicks like material trench coats, big honking Carbonite slabs, and even *gasp!* the proper weapon with their follow up Hans…

Guard Outfit) 12/12/2003 01:03 AM
To modern Star Wars fans, the name ‘Klaatu’ (along with Nikto, Barada, and Weequay) was the name of his species, but that wasn't the case in the old school days. In the Eighties, that was his given name; the one you'd find on his driver's licence. As such, Klaatu (In Skiff Guard Outfit) was actually the same guy as the dude with the furry skirt that came out on the 65 back cards mere months earlier. Both can be found in the Vintage Photo Archive.
