TewaCom/ChimayoRed closure

Steve Smith
Any other folks here on Tewacom.com network?  I just learned today that they are closing shop at the end of August, leaving a fairly big hole in coverage in the Pojoaque Valley area.   I just learned that Redinet is about to come on line, but they are depending on folks like Tewacom to provide the first-mile to my area, along with (I presume) hundreds or even thousands of others.

I've been in conversation with Lowenberg and 1st Mile, but thought I'd ping this group.

I'm interested in:
  1. Any ISP who might be able to take over the Tewacom infrastructure and add the service to their existing?
  2. Precedents or ideas around CoOp models, possibly using existing motorola infrastructure or building up a mesh network.
  3. Anyone with more information/insight into the timing of this event (coincident with RediNet?).
