Rhode Island’s plan to deploy a statewide wireless broadband network (a mix of Wi-Fi and WiMAX) is taking shape with the launch of two pilots in Providence and Newport. The cost of the project is $20 million.
I’d like to thank Bob for sharing the latest news on Rhose Island’s network and to clarify that, contrary to reports in the mainstream press, the network may be used for public access through partnerships with service providers. For more information, visit the RI-WINS website.
