This needs some clarification. 'very close' was the wrong characterization
on my part.... for this to take place we would need:

1) improvements to our Chebucto Plus to make it a truely high speed
service. This would free the medium speed (28.8/33.6) C+ modems for
regular dial-up/ppp.

We're doing very preliminary investigations on the financial (costing)
end... including the possibility of using our charitable status to improve
the financial picture (it's quite expensive)


2) development of a new product service model/pricing (entry level PPP)


3) technical testing of actual service (the software we're using for
regular dialup is currently being used for this at other sites).

We are very close only in the sense that there seems to be a reasonably
clear (unobstructed) technical path towards this, there remains a need to
identify a financial/marketing path for the organization that supports the
technical 'opportunity'.
