If Media Fusion have cracked it - and the only way I would
believe it is following a successful large scale deployment
at a *random* utility location - then they certainly would
have a highly sought after product. Otherwise I am not
going to invest a penny in them.

I agree with this guy.
One thing to consider also is that for areas where
the electrical signal is stable, reliable, etc.
Sometimes the power carrier uses some regulators to
limit the signal over the power lines to one frequency:
60 Hz.
That seems to be a "problem" here in Quebec, Canada.
We have a very reliable 120 V 60 Hz signal and
Hydro-Quebec (power carrier) "regulates" this signal
so that harmonics (multiples of the 60 Hz frequency)
are eliminated by regulators, filters, electronic stuff.
Every client has to appreciate that. Having a clean and reliable signal means quality of service and protection of your home/business/manufacturing electrical equipment.

I wonder if this electronic stuff regulates the
magnetic field over the power cable too.
If yes, Media Fusion technology will not work over these
power carriers.
Testing in rural areas where that kind of "regulators"
might not be used is probably a way to take less chances for it to make it work.
