sorry, I can't tell if you're saying that HN people want MTA upgrades or not.
As far as I'm concerned, low-tech solutions in the meatspace are frequently the best ones. Signage of static assets like subway maps should be paper. We've got these short-and-wide red LED signs for "next train in 4 minutes", those should be digital, but they're getting phased out in favor of LCD screens, that's dumb.
Those big new screens showing ads… I guess if they bring in more revenue, great? But if they double as notices for service interruptions, the serious stuff ought to show up more frequently than once every 12 screens…
All anyone wants is some common sense and not expensive change for change's sake. Low-res digital subway maps are stupid, full stop.
