Looks like this will be the solution for everyone to get instant internet access.
If it does happen, it looks like there will be some serious competiton in the DSL arena over the next few years.

I'd love to see it! Unfortunately, I saw a similar article 3-4 years ago. This technology has existed for many years, for example, household loudspeaker systems that don't need direct wiring and use signals carried on a home's A/C lines.

Perhaps the better question is why isn't it being deployed? Those power grid engineers just don't know much about being an ISP I guess! :)
