New wireless provider coming to Minneapolis

I don’t have a ton of info on this but according to the Minneapolis St Paul Business Journal

LightSquared, a high-speed wireless broadband startup backed by hedge fund Harbinger Capital, expects to expand its network into Minneapolis next year.

According to the LightSquared web site…

LightSquared is a new nationwide 4G-LTE open wireless broadband network that will use a unique combination of satellite and terrestrial technology to revolutionize wireless communications in the United States. As the country’s first wholesale-only wireless broadband network, LightSquared will provide broadband wireless capacity to a diverse group of partners, including retailers; wireline and wireless communication service providers; cable operators; device manufacturers; web players; content providers; and many others.
