It'd be sweet if the US ever got Google Balloon (or some technology similar to it)!

It seems like a great way to get high speed internet to places like islands or rural areas!

FWIW, we have Metrocast at the lake (WAM) and I see issues with it where it'll drop Internet connection. I'm monitoring it now, and if I see it happen on a fairly regular basis then I'll have proof to them about the issues with their services.
