gpmap writes "A new study from the New York City Council is recommending
that the Big Apple throw open the competitive bidding process for its annual
$130 million phone and Internet bill in order to leverage one of the most
expansive -- and underused -- fiber optic networks in the country. In so
doing, New York City could not only cut its annual telecom bill, but would
also be in a position to deploy wireless networking links as the "last mile"
connecting metropolitan area networks, or MANs. In addition, it suggested
using the fiber to deploy free Internet access with a Wi-Fi Network in
Brooklyn's Prospect Park."
