Wireless Oakland plan not off to a great start

It doesn't look like the wireless network that was planned to cover Michigan's 910-square-mile Oakland County is off to the most rousing of starts. The Wireless Oakland plan was to hook up seven pilot communities by the end of the summer, including the cities of Troy and Oak Park. So far, only two cities--Wixom and Pontiac--have been hooked up, but the others are still waiting. Organizers are saying the delay can be chalked up to the access point hardware taking longer than expected to be deployed, as well as the actual engineering of the network.
