So if Cisco is keen to buy in technology again and SP Wi-Fi is on its radar could the firm buy in this area? And if so, what? Seems like Ruckus might have put itself out of the picture with an IPO for instance...

Indonesia is also home to hobbits :)

And just to clarify.... Indonesia, with about 250 million inhabitants, accounts for about 3.5 percent of the world's population. 

It is the fourth most populous country, behind China, India and USA.

And yes, I am a geography geek.

Sorry, 3 1/3 of the worlds population; that extra 3 makes all the difference.

Huh? The population of Indonesia is 200-ish million.

Note that the country is actually an archipelago of 13.5k islands, if I remember right. Different kettle of fish. Article says across Indonesia, but I wonder if it's atually the main islands???

The have 1/3 of the worlds population (4th largest) but only 15th for total area.  Compared to the US is 3rd on the list for population and 3rd for total area.  So using WiFi there makes it more iaccessible to a given portion of the population.

There is probably more, a lot more of the red tape in the US too.

Makes the AT&T Wi-Fi rollout look like small potatoes, no?
