C Spire kicks off pre-registration for its Mississippi gigabit fiber service

C Spire, the regional wireless carrier with gigabit-sized dreams, has just announced that residents in nine Mississippi cities can now pre-register for its home fiber program. The southern US-based company recently revealed its plans to join Google, AT&T and others by taking a similar tack to Mountain View: making municipalities convince them they needed it.

C Spire’s initiative to bring ultra-fast 1 Gbps fiber to the home Internet service to Mississippi shifted into high gear this week with the launch of customized web pages that allow thousands of residents in nine finalist cities to pre-register for the next generation technology.
