Idaho has developed a Public Safety WiFi network that covers the 60 square mile area in and around Post Falls.  The system uses Orinoco outdoor routers and 802.11 access points.  We need to review what they accomplished to see if there is anything that we can learn as we implement the Utah Wireless Integrated Network.

In a recent example highlighting the value of wireless connectivity in patrol cars, a Utah officer pulled over a green minivan with a child kidnapper almost immediately after accessing an amber alert initiated from Minnesota on his laptop.

Ceristar has announced a new wired "smart" community in American Fork, Utah.  Fiber connections (using a Wave7Optics solution) will provide over 300 cable channels, VoIP phone service, video on-demand, games on-demand, as well as 8-15 Mbps of internet service.
