We're launching yet another model down here in Texas, based on much of what you say in your Paradox of the Best Network essay, David. NANOnet is a new approach to networks, with very small, inexpensive, standardized and bundled (4-10 nodes) mesh network kits deployed to provide service to communities (Chambers of Commerce, Neighborhood Associations), on a rational basis, as needed and when requested. This approach acknowledges that new technology enables new business models: mesh network deployments don't have to be large-scale like the big city RFPs we hear so much about these days. In fact, such an incremental approach has the added benefit of allowing the public to get used to the new technology and change their telecom paradigm at their own pace. In an interesting exercise, we've used a list of all the telecom dogma elements that are implicit in this debate (e.g., telecom is complex so companies must be huge to compete) to craft a business model out of the opposite positions. That approach embodies the theme of the Paradox of Best Networks. The money in the future will be in the applications, and the network is just a means to an end. We view infrastructure inadequacies as a fence that separates us all from the pasture of green grass on the other side. Ubiquitous affordable broadband access is a gate through that fence. Non-innovative and obstructionist telecom incumbents are into fences, not gates.
