I'm currently talking to a wireless provider about Internet access from
work. 2Mbit u/l 6Mbit d/l.
I can't remember the frequency exactly that they're using, but its in the
high 5's to low 6's from memory.

Yeah, very interesting.  I wonder if there's a place in this brave new world
of Wireless ISPs for community wireless?  When WiMax licenses are handed out
there will be heaps of these WISPs.  I wonder if the government would hand
out community WiMax licenses, in the same way that it has handed out
community radio and community television licenses?  I do hope that the WISPs
get out of the 2.4GHz ISM band when WiMax becomes viable.
