Thats exactly what I want our competition to do.. its good for the 
little guy to pick up a few scraps and possibly some of the best

Verizon has, or had, an LTE fixed solution a few years ago. I am pretty
sure it was depply discussed on this list. It was UBB at around 10G for
$100 if memory serves. ATT will likely try to be in the same ballpark.
