This is exactly what Richochet did. They offered free network and
intranet access to any city that would allow them to place their boxes
on city owned property and lightpoles for free.  Richfield police have 
laptops in their cars with high speed internet access and access to DMV 
and the usual databases which I believe is thru Richochet and is still 
working.
