I see homefree added Wetaskiwin, remember that's the town Paul said was unimportant!!
Q: Financial viability ?
Paul's answer - The competition is not partnered with any major phone company. That's bad news when it comes to their
costs.
- The competition uses a service called FreeIPass and therefore does not control their access lines. This has
major repercussions.
- The competition will have huge operating costs. "FreeIPass" is not a cost-effective solution when used as a
model for free Internet. 3web is allied with Sprint and is therefore able to operate a lot more cost-effectively.
- Advertisers want to target the big markets. Honestly, who cares about targeting people from Wetaskiwin (one of the many small towns listed).
