I wonder if wireless might not be the solution? They've done this in
some parts of south America where wired broadband isn't possible.
Usually a satellite system as the central point, then a system of wifi
transmitters. Don't know, might be worth bringing up at the next town
hall meeting. :)

They even have it in Northern Cyprus,

Not a big surprise in a way- as there is plenty of Turkish
infrastructure. I find this page funny-

because it suggests that only Greek Cypriot networks are available. I've
seen websites that also say you 'can't roam' in North Cyprus. Of course
you can, providing your network roams in Turkey! From my hotel room in
Nicosia, I could pick up two turkish networks in addition to the cypriot
one- even sent a text message on one of them just for the hell of it.
