Massport says service to start by end of year: Boston-Logan airport will have Terminal E equipped with Wi-Fi by year's end, and B, C, and D by next summer. (Terminal A is being rebuilt; it re-opens in 2005.) The daily cost should be $6 to $7, but thankfully they're already talking about working with aggregation. The two companies building the network are Electronic Media Systems, Inc., and TWI Interactive. I believe EMS was already unwiring Terminal E under a separate arrangement. I spoke to many hot spot infrastructure builders after the request for proposal was issued earlier this year by Boston-Logan, and they thought the cost structure was untenable, despite the 22 million passengers who pass through the airport each year. The main issue was that the RFP required the contractor to build out the entire infrastructure: power, Ethernet, equipment, etc., not just a Wi-Fi network. Some firms estimated that 2/3rds of the cost of the RFP would be just putting an Ethernet ring in. [via TechDirt]...

A small southern town built its own broadband wireless network: The city of Adel, Georgia, decided to construct its own wireless network to offer broadband service to businesses and residents because the only other high-speed option was some spotty DSL. This is a somewhat unusual deployment because the city will be the service provider. In other city-run deployments, like a handful in Washington State, the municipalities serve as wholesalers. They build the network but lease it to service providers who market services. I wonder if these types of deployments catch the eye of the existing broadband operators. Clearly the cities are taking action because the big operators aren’t offering them service. But are the operators losing out by missing these opportunities? Or are cities like Adel really so small that it doesn’t make sense for the big operators to serve them?...
