I have not heard of any around here...

I know Little Falls, MN has commercial wireless internet access, set up in
a similar fassion...

Now all we need is some technology to switch mobile devices from station
to station - like "Cell Sites" - then we'd really be set.

Each person would buy a device like that for their own use, and
inadvertantly expand the coverage area for everyone else at the same
time...

There would be lots of details to work out, but it should scale pretty
well...

What the president of the Motion Picture Association of America says about
taking away your constitutional rights:

"I'm rather jubilant now. What Judge Kaplan did was blow away every one of
these brittle and fragile rebuttals. He threw out fair use; he threw out
reverse engineering; he threw out linking."

- Jack Valenti, president of the Motion Picture Association of America.
