Crossroads has shut things down for now due to money supply. Apparently with the banking crisis their banks have delayed releasing funds to them for deployment. My project for them was shut down back at the end of August.

It's easier to do business my way and pay a tiny bit more for money from a bank, than to do all the RUS planning and paperwork hoops to get RUS subsidized loans. Speaking of RUS, has anyone noticed any crossroads wireless stuff happening? They've signed up to be at lots of sites, but I haven't actually heard much about deployment activity.
