(Araucaria) +1 cidade desiste do BPL

[Luís]

BPL: enquanto aqui, em SP, está se iniciando a comercialização da internet banda larga com tecnologia BPL,
nos EUA mais uma cidade pulou para fora desse lixo.

Destaquei em negrito/vermelho as afirmações que achei mais interessantes.

É isso!

The City of Manassas to end BPL Service Once touted as "the most successful BPL deployment in the nation", the City of Manassas
has decided to get out of the BPL business, once and for all. At a Special Meeting on Monday, April 5, the Manassas City Council - acting
on a recommendation from the Manassas Utilities Commission - unanimously voted to discontinue Broadband over Powerline (BPL)
Internet service as of July 1, 2010. The customers were told that they have three months to find a new Internet service provider.

According to Manassas City Clerk Andrea Madden, there was no discussion on the resolution to discontinue service and
the motion was passed "without incident."

The motion made by Councilman Jonathan Way and seconded by Mark Wolfe, the City Council decided shutting down the BPL system in
November 2009, the last time this matter was brought to the Council's attention. "The City needs to get out of BPL forthwith,"
Way said back in 2009. "It's not a good product."
