First of all......what the hell is that??.......in the pic????!!! Really, what is it? \
Secondly, aren't you guys mac people? By definition you guys are supposed to be on the forefront of tech or perhaps I'm mistaken. Don't you want to know about this stuff? Apple's plans N all??
I want to see Apple use that data center they picked up a few years back to set up their own nationwide full-coverage wired/wireless network and provide ISP, VOIP & VOD services for one low(ish, don't forget the Apple Tax?) monthly fee? I'm thinking fiber optic & whatever the best nex-gen wireless option is for connectivity?
At home, you have fiber optic blasting all services to your Apple set-top box, aka Apple Home Server, aka AppleTV Take 3? The built-in iSight on your 42" Apple HDTV flat-panel monitor will allow video iChats with friends, while you surf the web wirelessly from the couch using the Apple Mac touch tablet? Either from the house or out and about the town, you can make VOIP calls, replacing both cell & landlines? Distributed along the fiber optic runs are Apple maintained wireless access points, creating a mesh network that covers the city?

Well Olternaut, to be completely honest it looks just like my sister-in-law.
My condolences.

Hey, it could happen?!
;^p
Wheeeeeeeeee! I think I just wet myself.
Some breaking news on Wimax. For those who may be interested.
Nice update to the story thus far. Perhaps my recent sizable purchases of (bargain basement) CLWR were not such a bad decision... maybe.
