[IRCA] wireless MW interference?



an article in the NY Times today begins as below.  Are there any MW 
interference issues with these initiatives, or do they tend to be clean? 

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 11 - If Mayor John F. Street has his way, by next year 
this 135-square-mile metropolis will become one gigantic wireless hot spot, 
offering every neighborhood high-speed access to the Web at below-market 
prices in what would be the largest experiment in municipal Internet service 
in the country. 

City officials envision a seamless mesh of broadband signals that will 
enable the police to download mug shots as they race to crime scenes in 
their patrol cars, allow truck drivers to maintain Internet access to 
inventories as they roam the city, and perhaps most important, let students 
and low-income residents get on the net. 

Experts say the Philadelphia model, if successful, could provide the tipping 
point for a nationwide movement to make broadband affordable and accessible 
in every municipality. From tiny St. Francis, Kan., to tech-savvy San 
Francisco, more than 50 local governments have already installed or are on 
the verge of creating municipal broadband systems for the public.
