The city gets guaranteed profit of $20 million annual with projected rev share of much higher than that. Solid deal.
- anigbrowl 12y agoOh, gigabit wifi at that. Damn,t his looks like a good deal.
- warfangle 12y agoIt seems high until you realize they're putting in 10,000 of them. That's only $2k per kiosk - less than a high end gaming machine.
- warfangle 12y ago^- please don't upvote this :) I was a zero off. They're $20k each. Which considering the infrastructure upgrades involved is still pretty impressive. I doubt there's a fiber line to each of the payphone locations.
