That's what I'm thinking too. They are probably going to feature a couple of notable big-press dig hole events and show some equipment, but in the end this is a set of code changes and specialized devices that will emit a new code that gets special priority. Total cost to AT&T: a few million. We all paid taxes for that..

They've almost certainly already spent at least that much just to bid on the project. The upgrades will include things like structural re-enforcement of towers, increased battery / generator capacity, security enhancements, etc.
