Wish we had countywide wireless like they are working on in Oakland, Washtenaw, Macomb, Genesee, and Ottawa counties and also in Grand Rapids. At least that would be another option. The free service is still faster than dialup and you have options for packages that can go theoretically as fast as a wired system like cable/DSL, at least as far as Oakland County is concerned.
Arialink is supposed to be working on WiMax for the Lansing area, which is wireless internet from towers. Its supposed to be the next big thing, they already put it in Muskegon, I beleive.
