Almost like the original internet takeup...wireless offers 1Mb/125 5G USD$20/month +USD$300 Modem Setup - which is just enough for VOIP and hence you dont even need a landline.
The local telco already charges USD$25/month just for your connection - so VOIP is going to change the landscape...
however.....As per the internet takeup - the majors will just make all the garage setup owners millionares and buy up their customer base.....
Unfortunately the rollout isnt complete and there is quite a lot of shadowing where it isnt available - for example like the pharm photo - my new house is in a shadow....
