The article asserts Artemis will need to become a MVNO. This would be a large hurdle and one I don't think is remotely necessary. Unlimited data will make Artemis very attractive for fixed home internet service.
Also, some small cellular networks don't offer roaming and only work in very limited geographic areas. Many have successfully found niches among people who don't travel much or have alternatives when they are traveling.
- fragmede 12y agoI totally agree - they even mention Webpass in the linked article, though only in passing. Webpass is an established niche ISP in San Francisco (they sell 100Mbit symmetric home internet service for $55/mo, but serve a very limited area). A cell-phone service that only covered San Francisco isn't worth very much to me, but I'm sure many residents would jump at the chance to ditch Comcast for their home internet service, and Webpass is probably just the partnership Artemis needs - assuming the technology pans out.
