This may be of interest to Saratoga and/or the Village as a next
generation communications infrastructure.
"Google is planning to launch an experiment that we hope will make
Internet access better and faster for everyone. We plan to test
ultra-high speed broadband networks in one or more trial locations
across the country. Our networks will deliver Internet speeds more than
100 times faster than what most Americans have access to today, over 1
gigabit per second, fiber-to-the-home connections. We'll offer service
at a competitive price to at least 50,000 and potentially up to 500,000
people.
