Minneapolis earning its tech cred

Our fair city of Minneapolis is soliciting bids for a Wi-Fi network across the entire city for everyone to use. Sounds like what they're really doing is connecting all the government buildings and city vehicles together on a wireless network and then extending the service to everyone in the area. I'm quite interested in how they will be intergrating the fiber optic network into the mix. The sweetness of it all if they started hard-wiring neighborhoods with fiber connections, but I'll still be happy with the wireless. Seems my next computer is going to be a laptop anyway - although I really do love the iMac.

Its ventures like this that will make the city great, not collosal money pits like a new stadium. Can you beleive they're actually talking about building two?!
