Its interesting to note how many you can actually reach from the road. Apparently not that many relative to the distance you drove. I'm wondering if there are areas where IP roaming would work effectively due to the density of open access points.

Atlanta has changed tremendously since I was last here. Apparently the dot com boom hit here just late enough for it to immediately crash AFTER all sorts of construction projects were started, so the whole city is full of high end new-urbanist housing, and many of the construction projects are still in progress because they were started before the fall. The amazing thing is that these places are selling, I think mostly because interest rates are low, so home owners are selling their suburban houses and moving into these things...

I have to admit its not a bad time to do something like this... Look for things to be fucked up until 2007.
