P.S. My neighborhood is about as far from being a tech backwater as
it is possible to be in the world. Yet I still have only one viable
option for high speed Internet. It's a business & law problem, not
a technology problem.

It's a traditional monopoly problem. Market-based mechanisms don't work if
there isn't vigorous competition. The traditional solution is "common
carrier" regulation of "natural monopolies".
At the least, we need to define data carriage as a "common carrier"
business, where the carrier must provide service on a non-discriminatory
basis at published rates.
(Whatever happened to the dream of multiple WiMax providers?)
