I can't believe that Cablelink could possibly offer anything useful. They
never have in the past and I doubt they ever will. I bet it will come with
a bundle load of snags (eg mandatory proxy, dynamic ip/RFC 1597 IPs, no
servers allowed, no "support" for non-Windoze platorms, and a massive
whopping 256kbps line liking their service to the outside world etc)
Sorry for the rant -- I'm just a Cablelink MMDS customer (I'm sure you can
understand how fustrating that can be!)
Also notice that they have no launch date (not even an an approximate time
frame). That means its still years in the future.
Joe.
