What's At The End Of Rainbow
Over the summer a group of carriers and equipment makers got together to form Project Rainbow, a consortium dedicated to build out a national Wi-Fi network with cellular roaming agreements. That's pretty much all we heard about it till this week. Supposedly the group will be making some announcements this week further outlining their plans. Don't expect too much, with companies like Intel, AT&T, Verizon, Cingular and IBM involved Project Rainbow is going to more about marketing than an actual product or service.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
