Been following the FCC's National Broadband Plan?

If not, You should be in loop. Here is a review of it http://huff.to/dtKFu2

Look at some of the plan's highlights:www.broadband.gov/plan/executive-summary/

* Programs to help low-income Americans who need to better understanding the value of broadband, or how to use computers or navigate the Internet;

* Better use of wireless spectrum so that more people, especially those in underserved areas without wired connections, can have high-speed Internet access;

* New rules to speed up and reduce the cost of Internet deployment; and

* The expansion of existing programs that would allow subsidies for low-income Americans to receive broadband.
