Do you know how this squares with the technology announced by Nokia this week? The system has a network of rooftop antennas, that is, one for each subscriber. As I picture it, each home would have such an antenna. The system would use those as hops in its' network and data would be routed by the best path. If one home dropped off the system for some reason the antennas of the other surrounding homes would be used in its' stead. This sounds like UWB or if not, may be a similar, low power, short hop last mile solution.
