Acceptance will also will VERY STRONGLY depend on what limitations are placed on the service. For example, the laptop I'm on right now averages about 10GB/Month (two way), and any service offering that would be acceptable to me would have to accommodate that level of use at a minimum. If a service will not support my current level of use, and provide for future growth and for occasional peaks in usage that may even double a single month's usage, the that service cannot and will not replace my current cable internet with it's nationwide dial-up capability while traveling. (My laptop also has "free" WiFi available to it in two hour increments at the majority of Starbucks I stop at while traveling.) It's a tough market put there, Russ, and I really hope Sprint and Clearwire together can pull it off. Good luck!
