lml,

re: upper income consumer who can't get DSL today is screaming for it. I know, I'm one of them

You may want to check with Concentric. In the bay area, they are offering LMDS wireless DSL service. They have transmitters on two local hills - San Bruno Mountain and Monument Peak - to cover most of the populated part of the area without the 16-19Kft distance limit. They offer DSL speeds for similar prices to copper based DSL which they can do because both PB and the clec are out of the loop.

The flatter geography of the LA area may make this more difficult (it is line of sight) but you may want to check. I will respond to your other interesting points this evening.
