Hi Tim.

When Dart put in the rail expansion, Sprint laid some fibre optic and
lit it, as well as lighting all the buildings along the tracks.

For them to hookup will run you about $100/month.

For this you get;

4 MB/sec down (guaranteed - spikes as high as 8MB/sec)
2 MB/sec up (guaranteed - spikes as high as 4MB/sec)

If you need names/phone numbers, I can chase them down for you.

Now, if only I could justify this to my wife.....
