There's a good article on wireless and communities, written by
Fiona Morgan <fmorgan at indyweek.com>. The cover is at
http://www.indyweek.com/durham/2005-03-23/index.html
or go directly to the article at
http://www.indyweek.com/durham/2005-03-23/cover.html

It describes digital divide issues, opportunites, what's happening 
around the country. It includes quotes from the chief technology officer 
for the Chapel Hill-Carrboro school system and Erroll Reese, CTCNet 
board member. The focus is on the Research Triangle Park area of North 
Carolina, but the content is useful anywhere.

The headlines:
The Triangle unwired
Around the country, some cities say providing cheap wireless Internet 
access is as essential as water. Why not here?
