wonder whether Oceanic figures why expand in HPP when Aloha is filling the gaps
For that matter, why bother with any wired broadband with Verizon (et al) will just put up a tower? The towers have to buy their broadband from somewhere, too, and I'm sure the wired carriers would much prefer to only deal with one (big) customer.
some sort of shortwave (microwave? something!)
Mostly just wifi, but they do have some wimax in the (unlicensed) 3.65GHz band, all of which are subject to the limitations of fixed wireless (a tree gets taller, someone builds a house in the way, microwave ovens, contention with other wifi devices, etc).
