First white space broadband deployment in small Virginia town

The nation's first wireless broadband network operating in unused TV channel "white spaces" is now live in an unlikely spot -- Claudville, Virginia. Claudville is a small place -- only 20,000 people live in the entire county, and only 900 in Claudville proper -- and its Blue Ridge Mountain terrain has made Internet access hard to come by. Combine that with a countywide per capita income of $15,574 and its not hard to see why the big ISPs haven't rushed to Claudville.
